During their junior and senior years, theprogram provides undergraduates with a number of unique hands-on research, design, andprototyping experiences including Senior Capstone Projects and specially designed semesterprojects for numerous courses. In addition, in the Networking and Security sector, we designed acourse to mirror this type of rapid development by taking a group of under-skilled sophomore,junior, and senior students, assigning them to groups, and demanding a final product over justone semester. In that class (to be referred to as all-class project-based) just 11 to 14 studentswere challenged to work together to identify a single idea for a network-based end-to

The purpose of this cross-listed course was to produce business minded future engineers who through the experience of producing marketable products would develop better teamwork skills, adaptable communication skills, be comfortable with business plan development, and be knowledgeable of patents and intellectual property. Student team projects were either assigned or self-generated. The final product of the project was a functional product prototype supported by a written report describing its business and engineering aspects. The project evaluation was based on the intended business and engineering

Contextual learning environments such as work-basedlearning, internships, case-based learning, and project-based learning were found to be the mosteffective classroom practice for developing innovation competencies with undergraduatestudents[10].Case-based instruction for innovation theoryLecture-based instructional methods often leave students unengaged, uninspired,[11] and canpresent topics without applying contextual meaning[12]. Because of the inherent passive style oflecture-based instruction, students are missing out on the opportunity to be active participants intheir own learning which could affect learning outcomes[12, 13]. More active instructionalmethods, such as case-based instruction, have
