extracurricular activities to help hone engineeringstudents’ entrepreneurial skills and encourage ideation. However, there remainfew co-curricular opportunities for students to develop an entrepreneurial skillsetand practice entrepreneurial thinking. In particular, opportunities are rare forstudents to merge entrepreneurially minded learning (EML) with the high-levelsubject-, project- and collaboration-based learning approaches typically seen insenior-level elective courses. Developing the entrepreneurial mindset will serveour students well by preparing them to be more impactful engineers.We have developed, implemented and assessed a framework for integratingEML into senior-level elective courses via an Ideation Project.

Yet,engineering education typically focuses on narrow analytical training at the expense of fosteringexpansive thinking.

Students will be able to answer questions like: How does disability studies help us understand the perspectives, motivations, and needs of others?  Make connections between their STEM work and the field of disability studies.

Early career engineers may be demonstrating behaviours that others might interpret asleadership but that they might not see as leadership themselves. In order to examine leadershipbehaviors, we used Hartmann’s five engineering leadership themes for
