de Ingenieria (UNI), Managua, Nicaragua Mariavirginia1965@gmail.comAbstractThe entrepreneurial mindset has a number of attributes including curiosity about the worldaround you, discovery of opportunities, prototyping and vetting technology/business solutionsand then executing on the venture. International development projects offer many possibilities tolearn about an environment that students are not used to seeing and through observation, seeopportunities for technology-based solutions to developing world problems. We have used thismethodology for several senior design projects in the past and more recently have developedcourses specifically to develop these attributes in electrical and computer engineering

While developers of technology normally rely on attorneys foradvice about the protection of their ideas as trade secrets or as patents, developers can betterprepare for this process if they understand basic concepts of IP law. Indeed, they will know whatto do before seeking counsel, when to seek counsel, and what to do when they meet with theirattorneys.In law school, IP is usually taught as a second- or third-year course, when students already

Case Western Reserve University, for example, offers a certificate program in innovation and strategy11, and Georgia Institute of Technology offers a graduate certificate program called “Technological Innovation: Generating Economic Results” (TI:GER) 12.3. Innovation “minor” in degree programs: Some degree programs at the graduate level enable students to receive a minor in innovation. Typically, such minors require a three-course sequence that may also include industry internships. For example, the engineering school at Dartmouth offers an innovation program that provides doctoral students with entrepreneurial training to turn discoveries into marketable applied technologies.134
