understand the real economic and socialimpact of engineering in this century. Another target goal to be achieved is to foster among themthe entrepreneurial mind to pursue other opportunities than finding a job in a company [6]. For theuniversity the final goal is to attract more students and enlarge the number of students inengineering programs. Besides this, by law, universities should provide services to thecommunity, what serves for both student’s practical period and society access to consultancy inengineering that is very expensive otherwise. For the City Hall, this is another community servicefunded by federal government, which could be turned into votes for future elections.Project statusThe groups and the director of the project are doing

KernEntrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) [1]. As these efforts strengthen, approaches toassess the entrepreneurial mindset have also been developed. A popular approach is the use ofsurvey instruments. Lichtenstein and Zappe [2] reviewed 22 instruments developed to assessentrepreneurial mindset.We have developed a rigorously validated assessment instrument to explore the entrepreneurialmindset of engineering and computer science students [3], [4]. This instrument was developedbased on a framework in which an entrepreneurially minded engineer is defined as one whopossesses curiosity about our changing world, habitually makes connections to gain insight frommany sources of information, and focuses on creating value for others.

The goal of this work is to empower students to tell the story of their growth intoentrepreneurially minded engineers. Through connecting, reflecting upon, and constructing theirunique stories, students begin to see themselves as engineers who have developed and willcontinue to develop an entrepreneurial mindset to create value for others.

IntroductionThis paper addresses an observed shortcoming of university efforts towards innovation –particularly at land grant STEM-focused institutions. Specifically the observation is thatconsiderably more effort has been expended on actions towards the realization andcommercialization of ideas than has been invested in research on the actual ideation process,how it occurs in the minds of the ideators, as well as which conditions promote it. Thishypothesis is borne out by comparing university investments in ideation research to fundsappropriated for realization and commercialization.The synthesis presented in this paper focuses on

develops an entrepreneurial mindset as described by the KEEN framework.The overall strategy for incorporating entrepreneurial minded learning (EML) into the coreengineering curriculum may be seen in Figure 2. Part of this effort has been the modification ofthe first year engineering course sequence as described by Gerhart et al2. The logical next stepwas then to make curricular modifications that enhance the development of the entrepreneurialmindset in the sophomore year. Using KEEN funding, Lawrence Tech is taking this next stepthrough the development and institutionalization of a multidisciplinary, design studio course tobe taken during the second year of the engineering curriculum. This course builds on thefoundations of the first year and

I want to be an entrepreneur”and the non-traditional student inquired about “courses that will make me be a better innovator”.It took one ambitious faculty member to hear these statements and to gather a team comprisingthree other like-minded faculty members who shared the belief that Colorado School of Mineshad an opportunity to positively change the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem at Theirinstitution.
