Also of note are the highest scores provided by employers on both surveys were in the area of integrity, professionalism and ethics. This is in keeping with The Citadel’s longstanding focus on producing principled leaders [10].Table 1: Responses to 2012 MSPM Employer, Alumni and Exit Surveys Class of 2011 Class of 2011 Class of 2012 Question Employer Survey Alumni Survey Exit Survey Average N=8 N=9 N=7 Apply proper methods for 4.4 4.4 4.8

corporate finance andbusiness ethics. The simulation experience approach creates a scenario that resembles a realworld entrepreneurial experience. They are designed to address some of the process-orientedskills that are required. The entrepreneur personality is based on the assertion that entrepreneurshave distinctive personality traits that others can learn. Wilfing etal [6] identifies the big fivepersonal traits of successful entrepreneurs.Having thus seen the views and approaches to entrepreneurship the question is which approachwould be more suitable for engineering students as part of a Design and Manufacturing Labcourse. Cassel [7] states that the courses should be approached from the perspective of thestudent whose primary interest is in

tooling cost, but higher unit production cost. Knowledgeof both materials and manufacturing methods, combined with accurate estimates of productvolumes, determine the profitability of the end product.There is also the issue of ethics. Selection decisions for materials and processes have a dramaticimpact on environmental protection, waste management, engineering ethics and socialresponsibility. The ‘Obligation of the Engineer’, promulgated by the National Society ofProfessional Engineers (NSPE), requires that engineers ‘conserve nature’s resources’. This is anobligation that engineers of all disciplines, and particularly design engineers, materials engineers,and manufacturing engineers, should consider in any professional decision. See the

not offer this type of information to their undergraduate students. However, theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) requires that graduates be able “todesign a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such aseconomic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, andsustainability.”5-8The topic of sustainability has become ubiquitous. It is part of corporate strategy, consumerchoice processes, university initiatives, engineering, and technology programs within thebusiness discipline. This moves toward more sustainable business practices and education is adirect result of an increasing awareness of the significant green manufacturing covers a
