The developers are required to undergo formal training on how to design andconstruct online learning modules that are highly interactive and of high quality. The Office ofeLearning at UNH provides the necessary training through a 3-week online course to both UNHfaculty and to faculty at other institutions. The modules are designed for course instructors todeploy in an asynchronous mode. Exercises and assessment of student learning are included ineach online module. The online modules will be integrated into the courses identified in Table 1and students will be required to complete them as part of

engineers fromprofessionals in other fields. This skill gives engineering graduates a competitive edge forpursuing diverse career paths and for responding to a range of social and technological needsthroughout their careers. A component of this competitive edge includes affording students theopportunity to develop an entrepreneurial mindset (EM). According to the Kern EntrepreneurialEngineering Network (KEEN), the EM includes three dimensions: curiosity, creation of value,and connections. While entrepreneurship is frequently associated with commercialization andbusiness, it is a critical but undervalued aspect of designing products and solutions inengineering. Over the past decade, various members of KEEN have embedded the EM inengineering

This occurs wheneconomic news shows how global competition, downsizing, decentralization, re-engineering,mergers, and new technologies have made careers more complex and uncertain for graduatesfrom all sectors [5,6].

Because of this background, he was selected to be part of a team to teach the ”Innovations and New Ventures” class on entrepreneurship that began in the summer of 2006, with him concentrating on the innovation side of the course. To date, over one hundred and eighty students have learned how to develop a product and put together a basic business plan.

, the researchers found that student characteristics such as gender, nationality andGPA are influential in determining the type of EEPs (curricular and co-curricular) students selectto participate in. Furthermore, the researchers found that curricular EEPs act as a gateway toinvolvement in entrepreneurial activities outside of the classroom and women are more likely toparticipate in curricular EEPs than co-curricular programs.

socialstyle and the context may be critical (Hackman & Wageman, 2007). By considering leadership incontext, we may better understand whether some styles of leadership are more effective thanothers. Therefore, in exploring leader social styles, we pose the following research question: Are some leadership styles better than others when initiating and promoting change initiatives?In academic settings, an important individual characteristic of team leaders is tenure status.Among the faculty in a university, those that have tenure track positions, but have yet to gaintenure, are under great pressure to be productive compared to their tenured peers (Miller, Taylor,& Bedeian, 2011). Thus, they must pay special attention to their
