It is quitebeyond the powers of any one person to even scan it all in any one field, much less read it.”Professor Johnson argued that “the mind of an engineer should be a workshop and not awarehouse.

considering this approach: (1) Share the load with someone, if possible. (2) Change one part of the course at a time, even if it takes a few years to completely convert the entire course. (3) Prepare a lot of the material in advance of the term. (4) Be prepared for student resistance by gathering facts to show why this is a good change. Give them lots of opportunity for feedback, and respond to it.References1. Sheppard, S. D., Macatangay, K., Colby, A., & Sullivan, W. M. (2008).

the challenges inengineering education. This paper presents the efforts to improve a core undergraduate industrialengineering course, Designing Value in Supply Chain, to infuse entrepreneurial thinking amongstudents using an internally funded grant by Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN).For this purpose, three new course modules are designed and their effectiveness on studentlearning is evaluated. This course is ideal for establishing entrepreneurially minded learning(EML) as a systematic approach is required for managing the chain of supply, especially sincethe impacts of the decisions are not isolated and will be spread out through the entire chain. Inaddition, creative multidisciplinary knowledge is required to address most of
