toquickly provide value for their employer or their own company.Many schools are offering courses and extra curricular resources for students that are interestedin developing new products. Stanford and Case Western University continue to excel atproviding both an environment and curriculum that supports undergraduates, graduates andfaculty in their entrepreneurship endeavors. There is a natural fit between engineering andentrepreneurship education. However, it takes more than marrying the two disciplines. Thewhole school needs to embrace entrepreneurship and new product development. New productdevelopment is a mindset that must be cultivated and nurtured at every level and corner of acampus. In other words, Entrepreneurship must be embedded within

As engineering educators, strive to produce“industry-ready” engineers - graduates who use their technical expertise to bring value to an exist-ing organization 14,15 . Although reliable numbers are difficult to come by, it seems clear that thereare more engineers entering established industries than creating their own start-up companies. Aseducators we have responded by focusing on fostering an “entrepreneurial mindset” - a collectionof skills, knowledge and attitudes that will enable engineers to both amplify the value they provideto large industries (intrepreneurs) and form their own start-up companies (entrepreneurs).A common theme that arises for both

workshops were designed to help students think more creatively in their class projectsand practice a growth mindset [14] through short exercises demonstrating cognitive biases,barriers, and traps that prevent people from finding creative, novel solutions to problems.Thereby, we hope that students would be less likely to fall into these traps. According to a recentstudy by Burnette et al. [15], students in a growth mindset intervention, relative to the control,reported greater entrepreneurial self-efficacy and task persistence on their main class project andimprovement in their academic and career interests. Reducing the negative effect of the cognitivebiases, barriers and traps requires deliberate and repeated practice of CPS techniques. Althoughwe

Using information provided by respondents, we investigated how views differ based on level of experience or knowledge associated with I&E as part of engineering education? 2. What role does the community think I&E should have as part of undergraduate engineering education? Engineering schools and departments are challenged to prioritize and find space for all of the competing foci, such as sustainability, global, green, research or civic engagement, that

As we discuss in the following section, educators haveattempted different approaches to identifying realistic software projects, but doing so is often atodds with adopting Agile methods. Meanwhile, students in Entrepreneurship programs also require experiential learning totransition from a “novice entrepreneurship mindset” to practice entrepreneurial processes anddevelop practical skills [6].
