InitialPublic Offering (IPO): In the 10th year of the company, you are doing $70 million in sales and project that you will reach $100 million within a year. At this time, you see 2 possible directions for the company: 1) Take the company public. Your accountants suggest that you should offer 2 million (of your total 12 million shares) at $30 per share. 2) Disney, which has been trying to get into the educational software market, offers you $420 million for your entire company.Students often gave clear answers that analyzed their personal interests, long term career goals,and assessments of value. However, close to half of the students (16 of 40) also struggled withthe exact mechanisms at play when

precision. Problems faced are murky with manypossible ill-defined boundary conditions. The careers pursued by engineering graduates aredefined by technical issues, pressures involving cost of idea/product development, time tomarket, market share, and project profitability. If the latter items aren’t part of one’s careerthinking, that career is in great jeopardy because one is pursuing one’s career as if it is a hobby.Would you as the owner or manager of a company pay someone to pursue their hobby? Probablynot. Others won’t fund your hobby either. Engineers need to contribute to the revenue stream,business plan, and leadership. How is that being taught in the typical engineering curriculum?The rapidly changing scenario playing itself out on an

Because of the inherent passive style oflecture-based instruction, students are missing out on the opportunity to be active participants intheir own learning which could affect learning outcomes[12, 13].

It enables a student team to take action to collect information with the blankareas highlighting the need for attention. As high-level information appears, it encouragesassociation and alignment across the canvas boxes. Because no fixed process steps are explicitlyencoded in the canvas, it can encourage iteration as new information is added.Objectives of this StudyHaving identified opportunities to add value in design and engineering education, we establishedseveral objectives at the outset of this work.

the Engineering Majors Survey(EMS). The EMS is part of a research project initiated by the National Center forEngineering Pathways to Innovation, or for short EPICENTER. It was designed to investigate“engineering students’ career goals surrounding innovation, and the experiences and attitudesthat might influence those goals” [8]. In 2015, the initial survey (EMS 1.0) of thislongitudinal project was administered to over 30,000 undergraduate engineering studentsenrolled at 27 universities across the United States. A total number of 7,197 students filledout the survey questions. A second (EMS 2.0) and third (EMS 3.0) wave of surveys were sentout in 2016 and 2017, respectively, to approximately 3,500 participants who voluntarilyagreed in EMS 1.0

The research initially focused on the manufacturing factors such as increasingproductivity through work study and work-flow analysis, and introducing semi-automation and flexible manufacturing methodology. As the project progressed,however, several non-manufacturing factors were identified as major influences in theI&TT process within the targeted micro-manufacturer. The ability for firms to progressin improving the manufacturing factors is often dependent on these factors, which arecategorized as very personal

The aim is to raise the interest level among the students, make them aware ofthis important field and give them an overview of the subject. The hope is that they wouldchoose to study Entrepreneurship either as a minor degree or as a set of elective courses. It is inthose courses that the all important hands-on training and actual project work will take place.There is a great ancillary benefit to these case studies in that they allow the student to betterappreciate the usefulness of what might be initially construed as a boring and dry technical topic.It is that mutually beneficial relationship that makes it easier for a course instructor to give up acontact hour of his/her class
