This requires a high level of “resiliency” defined as theability to overcome and rise above adversity and difficult situations. Page 26.89.3Resiliency describes one´s ability to move forward with optimism and self-confidence evenwhen we are immersed in adversity. It is a mental state motivated by our thoughts, which arein part formulated by our success and our interpretations of past and current

After interviewing 53 engineering innovators abouttheir experiences as an innovator and qualitatively analyzing the interview data, weidentified twenty unique characteristics of engineers who had demonstratedextraordinary innovative behavior (Ferguson D., 2013). This finding was corroborated bya separate focus group study (Ferguson D. et al., 2014). We then initiated a modifiedDelphi study with 150 engineering innovators drawn from academic, corporate, andentrepreneurial organizations to examine the complex constructs associated withengineering (Ferguson D, Purzer S, Ohland M, Jablokow K, & Menold J, 2014).

Followingthis, they were assigned a project consisting of the following five basic steps: 1. Identify a product with opportunities for improvement in sustainability. 2. Research product’s current design and manufacture. 3. Analyze sustainability of current design and manufacture. 4. Identify alternative design and manufacturing approaches which may increase product’s sustainability. 5. Communicate proposed solution(s) through written and oral summary reports.Some students at

in meeting the challenges associated with preparing students to succeed in aglobal economy1. In other words, our current education practices lack instruction on how toincorporate the customers’ needs into a technical solution. To accomplish this and ensure theU.S.’s economic competitiveness, known effective pedagogies must be integrated with anentrepreneurial mindset. This mindset will take engineering education beyond providing studentsjust a technical background, but will develop innovative thinkers who consider the value to thecustomer in their solutions.

In summary, this literature review demonstrates that empirical studies of entrepreneurshipprograms often overlook socio-demographic characteristics and simplify the conceptualization ofco-curricular experiences, suggesting a vague alignment with the curriculum.Conceptual Framework In an effort to work towards a more structured approach to studying the complexities ofengineering entrepreneurship education and its impact on students in higher education, we havechosen to position this analysis in the context of Lattuca et al.’s (2014)30 use of the Terenzini

The rationale for presenting this learning method and practice is that the processdoes not happen by itself; therefore, by definition, it is more based on social rather than naturalscience and hence, cannot by typically coached by engineering educators without solid structureand a step-by-step process description with rationale included. Methods introduced in this papershed light on this matter and we argue that if implemented accordingly, they can be used by avariety of educators.

In our research, we validate the idea that a person´s personal and professionalrelationship with uncertainty is not directly correlated; rather, they could be considereddifferent comfort zones.Little’s (2005, 2006, 2007) research validates that personally construed action, termedidiogenic action, has the capacity to confront biogenic and sociogenic forces.
