Paper ID #15139Development of an Instrument to Measure the Entrepreneurial Mindset ofEngineering StudentsDr. Cheryl Q. Li, University of New Haven Cheryl Qing Li joined University of New Haven in the fall of 2011, where she is a Senior Lecturer of the Industrial, System & Multidisciplinary Engineering Department. Li earned her first Ph.D. in me- chanical engineering from National University of Singapore in 1997. She served as Assistant Professor and subsequently Associate Professor in mechatronics engineering at University of Adelaide, Australia, and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, respectively. In 2006

[company name], in terms of actual technical work, was like a 30 second - oh, not 30 second - but it was like 30 minute, very short, design of a little Excel sheet to calculate heat recovered from a water stream using Q equals mcp delta t, which you learned like in high school. Like, its just literally multiplying numbers together, no integration, super simple, um, and yeah, that was the most serious thing I did. And I was astounded at the time, I was so surprised.Later in the conversation, Andrew expands on the main challenges that he actually did faceduring his internships, characterizing them as “cultural.” While we return to this theme below indiscussing the sociotechnical character of Andrew’s work, here it is

They take accountability for the actions of learning. They view themselves asthe “CEO” of their learning. “…being responsible and taking over without being told what to do.” [person Q] “I take responsibility for my learning; I don’t leave it up to an instructor per se. If they present a topic or use a word or a concept, it isn’t gone into detail in, in a course or during the
