Integrating Entrepreneurial Minded Learning in Circuit Analysis and Design CourseThe challenge of integrating EML in engineering curriculum is adding the EML activitieswithout additional workload to the currently packed curriculum. Instead of developing separatecourses in entrepreneurship, CoE plans to integrate EML into numerous engineering courses.Each course will have EML elements to help students grow with KEEN’s “the three Cs”(Curiosity, Connections, Creating Value) [13]. Incorporating EML in different course sequencessuch as analog and digital circuits, electronic design, and communication sequences will providestudents an opportunity to develop an entrepreneurial mindset. EML has already been integratedinto Electronics Design I (EE375

as the thinning of the herd; students areconvinced to leave engineering programs because they cannot manage the academic workload.Attrition studies have concluded that most students that choose not to remain in engineering aredoing well academically and have GPAs similar to those students who stay in engineeringcourses [2,3]. These studies refer to outdated curriculum and a misunderstanding of howstudents prefer to learn [4, 5, 6].Project-based team learning is an essential practice used to modernize engineering curricula andhas been shown as a decisive factor in retention of students in STEM fields [1].

of courses throughout the program,across all engineering majors.The co-curricular initiatives to support entrepreneurship are usually open and occur incollaborative spaces, in which people have the chance to do networking everyday. In thesespaces people come to develop and receive help to materialize an idea. They are rather informalspaces, where informal language is used and relationships are horizontal. The characteristics thatthese co-curricular initiatives adopt, and how they interact with the curriculum, allow us toidentify schools where these structures are less empowered, that is to say, with sporadic activitiesand little coordination with the program core curriculum. For example, UAI is still working onhaving their co-curricular

Course The city of Dayton and the University of Dayton find their greatest strength in the field ofaeronautics through numerous teaching, research and service activities. Dayton is an airplane town. At theUniversity of Dayton, there are roughly 130 students in the undergraduate aerospace concentration androughly 40 graduate students. In 2002, the aerospace concentration within the department of mechanicalengineering was overhauled. The core curricula of aerospace engineering programs and combinedmechanical and aerospace programs throughout the country were evaluated to determine the necessarycourses to be offered in the curriculum at University of Dayton. As a result of the survey, the Introductionto Flight course was added and the

Stories Reveal Gendered Perceptions of What it Means to be Innovative in EngineeringAbstractFocus on the role of motivation and emotions as part of engineering entrepreneurial definitionspose an intriguing question: Might understanding how college students characterize a newgraduate’s entrepreneurial action be crucial for expanding a definition of innovation andinfusing new elements in the curriculum? In this paper, we utilized students’ interpersonalperceptions of another to parse out the definition of innovativeness, finding that gender mattersfor achievement motivation and affiliation motivation in conceptualizing anengineer/founder/CEO.

used towards this effort.The common curriculum approaches include offering business-oriented courses and/or offering aminor in entrepreneurship. However, the engineering programs at our university are already verypacked and there are limited elective credits available for courses in entrepreneurship.Furthermore, being a small private university, it is also a challenge to find faculty members withrequisite expertise in entrepreneurship. To overcome these constraints, we employ an innovativecurricular model that is based on integrating short e-learning modules into existing engineeringcourses. Content experts around the country were invited to develop these modules. As a result,the curricular approach we have adopted involves the following

that the number of engineering schoolsoffering EEPs will increase. Furthermore, this growth is anticipated due to continued calls forfostering innovation [21] and recognition of entrepreneurship as an important element ofengineering education [22], [23]. Depending on the availability of resources and targeted goals,EEPs for engineering students follow a variety of existing models, such as specialized academicdegrees, including minors [18], standalone entrepreneurship courses [24], and entrepreneurialtraining integrated into existing engineering design programs [25]. In addition to variedprogrammatic structures, EEPs also differ in their pedagogical approaches which range fromstudent-centered teaching practices, formalized mentorship with

In the third phase, the workshopdeliverables were expanded into actual course activities and assessment complete with detailedrubrics. Again, a faculty member who was a researcher in the first phase of work was included inthe course activity development and assessment team. This allowed continuity between thephases of the projects.

mindset (KEEN,2018). Across the country, undergraduate engineering programs are pursuing the integration ofentrepreneurial studies within STEM curriculum. Private and public institutions aresupplementing a didactic education (e.g. earning a Minor in Entrepreneurship) with co-curricularactivities, such as encouraging engineering student participation in related student organizations,in themed living learning communities, in entrepreneurship competitions, in internships atstartups, and in networking events with alumni entrepreneurs, to name a few. Finally, within thelast few years, there has been an upsurge in physical spaces created to support on-campusstartups and networking with entrepreneurs-in-residence. These so called co-working spaces

As most, if not all, of the projects focusedintensely on the development of a product, students were regularly challenged to design forspecific needs and to prototype, as well as learn from failure and integrate components into awhole. Students generally had significant confidence increases in their engineering abilities as aresult of their participation in the REU, and we attribute this to the specific and applied nature ofthe research projects, as opposed to other REU projects where the applicability of the subjectmatter may be more theoretical and further removed from an everyday product with

Assuch, little is known about how to incorporate competency-based education into traditionaland professional bachelor degree programs such as engineering, which requires a greaterfocus on knowledge and skill integration. The purpose of this paper is to highlight a newapproach to learning that goes beyond the proverbial "checking boxes" to provide anapproach for demonstrating the integration of abilities and reflection. This innovative andexperimental approach offers three unique attributes. First, it is competency-based in thatstudents are required to demonstrate mastery of meeting core innovative competenciesthrough submission of an artifact (“transdisciplinary-doing”) and reflection

The durationof the module can be from 15 minutes up to two hours in length and the modules are packagedfor dissemination. While there are existing professional development opportunities that instillthe Entrepreneurial Mindset in engineering courses, no such program exists for non-engineering,foundational STEM courses.

Some scholars have emphasized innovation as adesirable outcome of instruction or learning environments [20,21], others as the demonstration ofcertain abilities [22], and yet others as appropriate conceptualizations [23]. As researchers, wemight ask how goals directed towards these distinct ends vary in terms of outcomes.
