Somehave argued that this kind of curriculum not only fails to foster creativity, it actually stiflesingenuity1, inhibiting innovation to solve the world’s greatest problemsWe sought to reverse this negative association between creativity and engineering education bymotivating a large engineering class with a combination of Ethic of Care2,3,4 andentrepreneurship. Ethic of Care is a concept grounded on value-guided practices to meet theneeds of those receiving the care, within a framework of justice and rights5. By incorporating awider view of stakeholders and their relationships in the engineering design process

Project courses for all majors. The importance of understanding risk andliability, of continuous professional development including licensure, and of ethics inengineering practice, all of which are relevant concepts for an entrepreneurial approach toengineering, have been stressed. Historically, senior projects that have led to longer-termstudent-private sector collaborations or even student-initiated business have been rare.Recently, entrepreneurship at Pitt-Johnstown has experienced a revitalization. A renewed pushto create an Entrepreneurial Studies program came from Pitt-Johnstown President Jem Spectar in2011. This led first to an agreement with Johnstown Area Regional Industries (JARI) to supportentrepreneurial internships for Pitt-Johnstown

In using the Product ArchaeologyCanvas, students must “excavate” public information on all of these factors for an over-the-counter medical device. Like an archaeologist, they needed to create a plausible and coherentnarrative of the decisions the company made in moving that product idea to the customer. Withthis background they become forward-thinking intrapreneurs – proposing a way to increase thevalue of their product but in a way that balanced all of the various constraints and perspectives.

ethical practice grounded in science and engineering methods andstandards. The process involves face-to-face meetings and discussions with entrepreneurs of thecity, from the presentation of the problem until the delivery of the plans. Once engineers are partof society it is important that they have a stronger interaction with the wider public. So the goal ofincluding this course in the program is to provide students the opportunity to work closely withthe real local entrepreneurship environment. Apart from this, engineers need to develop broadfundamental understanding of their professional responsibilities, as well as the need to beentrepreneurial in order to understand and contribute in the context of market and businesspressures.

Communication allows one to convey engineeringsolutions in economic terms, and to substantiate claims with data and facts. Finally, character isdisplayed through such behaviors as fulfilling commitments in a timely manner, discerning andpursuing ethical practices, and contributing to society as an active citizen. It was noted thatservice learning, as applied through engineering, embraces many of these example behaviors.Accordingly, a new hypothesis was posed for the 2014-2015 offering of the first-yearprogramming sequence: that by embracing the entrepreneurial mindset as stated by KEEN –curiosity, connection, and creating value – as well as developing various
