By shifting IABs from reactionary advisory roles toactive partnership roles, the approach demonstrates how academic-industry interactions canbecome more adaptive and impactful. This paper also shares current efforts from a ProjectUnlock ™ training involving over 15 institutions that have now

Thisstudy can also result in recommendations that will strengthen the college of engineering’s abilityto expand students’ entrepreneurial mindsets [10].This project examines the activities each department is engaged in and provides in order tohighlight various career opportunities available to their students. In addition, this project exploreshow offerings differ across departments. Ultimately, the findings from this first case studydetailed in this paper will be used alongside student perception data to develop a career pathwaysassessment report and a framework for aligning

. • Planning learning experiences and instruction: Students engage in structured learning activities, such as exploring the attributes of novel technologies, receiving mentorship from industry and academic partners, and collaborating with peers from diverse disciplines.This structured approach ensures that students not only acquire technical knowledge but alsodevelop the entrepreneurial mindset and collaborative skills necessary for tackling complexindustry demands. By starting with the solution, advanced technologies from a global aerospaceagency, and working backward to uncover real-world problem application, the programexemplifies how backward design can drive innovation and interdisciplinary integration incapstone projects

The results provide a more detailed view of thelandscape and context of current advisory boards and engineering program interactions andinform the framework and playbook development. We discuss further how programs cantransform their IABs into Industrial Partnership Boards (IPBs) that are co-creators of thecurricular and/or co-curricular student experience. It is our belief that these deeper interactionswill drive transformational change at adopting institutions towards production of students withan entrepreneurial mindset that embraces the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous natureof future engineering practice.Introduction & BackgroundIndustrial advisory

ultimately go out of business. However, that isnot the case in engineering education. Innovation is harder to evaluate in academia. In industry,businesses often quantify the amount of revenue generated from new products and serviceswhich can be directly measured. Teaching students to have an entrepreneurial mindset is muchmore challenging to assess. The longer-term measure is the productivity of a program’sgraduates as practicing engineers. Besides measuring innovation, it is difficult to incorporate intothe curriculum, other than in capstone projects. However, it is too late in the curriculum to saveinnovation for the final year of a program. It needs to be taught regularly throughout theprogram, although not necessarily in every course.An aspect

Each of the theoretical conceptsin our roadmap diagram, as well as how they were applied in practice through our project arediscussed in detail below.Application of Theoretical Principles in PracticeDesign ThinkingIn the 1970s, the principles of design thinking began to emerge. Herbert Simon, in his 1969 book,“The Sciences of the Artificial,” described design as a way of thinking. The term design thinkingwas coined by David Kelley in 1978 to encapsulate the thought processes and mindsets relevantto the design process. In 1992, scholar Richard Buchanan discussed design thinking as a sciencethat should be aimed at integrating multiple
