Key responsibilities of these positions include: identification of projects ofappropriate scope, cost and duration, management of sponsor expectations related to projectoutcomes and deliverables, and overall management of sponsor relationships. Furthermore,these positions are organizationally housed within academic unit(s), as opposed to reportingdirectly through the University’s development or corporate relations offices. This structuremaintains the emphasis on Senior Design and Enterprise as educational programs, and allows thestaff to objectively address the needs and interests of the University, the students, and the projectsponsor.

the way.The task of coalition building can be described as the task of selling the idea [12]. Sellingthe idea in this context means finding potential allies for its implementation. Thus, a largepart in the management of innovation is the management of attention [30]. The process canbe described as an interplay of several roles that are taken by several individuals. There isthe “champion” of an idea who is usually the person or the team who generated the idea orwas/were early advocates [31, 32]. The champion tries to gain the attention of people in theorganization that s/he evaluates as indispensable for the realization of the idea [12]. These areusually people in the higher hierarchy of the organization. Galbraith [33] distinguishesbetween

: Distinguishing Itself from Other FieldsNot only does some of the literature on entrepreneurs distinguish them from others in business,the field of entrepreneurial studies has sought to identify itself as different from mainstreambusiness studies, even though similarities exist. We see this distinction as another reason forcreating ethical studies for entrepreneurial education. Higher education has allocated a greatmany resources towards keeping up with changing business trends: growing, modifying andcustomizing curriculum to better prepare graduates to compete in the ever evolving economiclandscape. In the mid 1990’s entrepreneurship education was born. Over the last decade it hasbecome one of the fastest growing fields of study available to students

The authorapplied an operational methodology used during his employment in the late 1990’s in theautomobile parts industry. The fundamental structure clearly defined the students as thedesigners and developers; the professor’s role was that of mentor and design guide. This wasvery definitely not a case where the students obtained their technical information from theprofessor. The team met every Thursday afternoon, initially for three hours. During the first meeting,the tasking to be accomplished by each member of the team was identified, with particular
