University of Tennessee,Knoxville. Cornell Engineering offers a more in-depth program starting with an Introduction toEntrepreneurship for Engineers course at the sophomore level. The minor requires 18 credits andincludes courses on Ethics, History of Capitalism and Technology, Accounting and Finance,Ideation and Design Thinking and a capstone entrepreneurship project. An experiential learningexperience through a summer internship or coop program is encouraged but not required.The engineering entrepreneurship minor at the University of Virginia is comprised of threerequired courses and one elective. The three required courses are Business Fundamentals,Engineers as Entrepreneurs, and Entrepreneurial Finance. An elective course is also requiredwhich

score of 1 on the 1-to-7 scale, the results arestill significant (p < 0.05).The validity of this result is limited by the lack of a control group, which was notrealistically possible because (a) this is a required course in our program, and (b) studentsfrom other engineering majors would likely not serve as a valid control group because ofself-selection bias of our majors. The best control would have been parallel sections ofthe course that omitted DYL, but this was not feasible for reasons of both logistics (ourprogram’s small size would mean that sample sizes were too small to provide reliableresults) and ethics (some students would not have the DYL content that the programperceived to be important to them). Nevertheless, this result is

feedback are presented.Introduction and Course DescriptionThe College of Engineering (CoE) seeks opportunities to enhance its program curriculumhelping students become more successful after graduation. As of October 2017, the CoE’smission is as follows:“The mission of the College of Engineering is to develop team-oriented engineeringprofessionals from diverse backgrounds who are prepared to ethically apply industry-currentreal-world skills to achieve value-added solutions in a dynamic world.”During 2017, CoE successfully received an ABET re-accreditation with no interim reports for sixyears for the BSEE and BSCE undergraduate programs. During the accreditation process, oneissue ABET visitors posed a question to CoE paraphrased as: where does the

-Sacre, & McGourty, 2005). According to ABET’s EC2000 standards, the new generation ofengineers is expected to possess deep technical knowledge in their field of study as well asprofessional skills, such as communicating effectively, working in teams, solving unstructuredproblems, and an awareness of ethical and contextual considerations in engineering (Lattuca,Terenzini, & Volkwein, 2006). The NAE believes engineers need to be flexible, resilient,creative, empathetic, and have the ability to recognize and seize opportunities (NAE, 2002;Sheppard, Pellegrino, & Olds, 2008) How can entrepreneurship education lead to these learning outcomes? Mostentrepreneurship-related activities students participate in are experiential in
