years of undergraduatebiological and agricultural engineering (BAE) curricula, which are usually dominated by moretheoretically focused engineering science courses. This paper describes one effort to introducean entrepreneurial minded engineering project into a 3rd year BAE Thermodynamics course.Thermodynamics is a required course in 94% of BAE undergraduate programs (Kaleita andRaman, 2012). The goal for this project was to have the students apply their newly developedthermodynamics skills in a real-world setting, while developing an entrepreneurial engineeringmindset and making a difference in peoples’ lives.2. MethodsA compelling context. The context for the project is food insecurity (Dubick et al., 2016). Oneproblem at the local foodbank’s

helped scholars strengthen confidencein their ability to pursue careers in fields they may not have considered before:"No matter your background, you can do whatever you set your mind to. My mentor is fromMexico and she became an engineer. I think having a story like that is amazing and makes merealize that I can accomplish my dreams." (Cultivate ACCESS Scholar, journal submission, Fall2018).“If you push yourself, everything really is limitless. Coming from a minority background in asmall town sets me apart, but it also sets me up to have the chance to exceed expectations.”(Cultivate ACCESS Scholar, journal submission, Fall 2018).Other development indications from journal submissions showed increased understanding ofcareer pathways.
