University of Tennessee,Knoxville. Cornell Engineering offers a more in-depth program starting with an Introduction toEntrepreneurship for Engineers course at the sophomore level. The minor requires 18 credits andincludes courses on Ethics, History of Capitalism and Technology, Accounting and Finance,Ideation and Design Thinking and a capstone entrepreneurship project. An experiential learningexperience through a summer internship or coop program is encouraged but not required.The engineering entrepreneurship minor at the University of Virginia is comprised of threerequired courses and one elective. The three required courses are Business Fundamentals,Engineers as Entrepreneurs, and Entrepreneurial Finance. An elective course is also requiredwhich
score of 1 on the 1-to-7 scale, the results arestill significant (p < 0.05).The validity of this result is limited by the lack of a control group, which was notrealistically possible because (a) this is a required course in our program, and (b) studentsfrom other engineering majors would likely not serve as a valid control group because ofself-selection bias of our majors. The best control would have been parallel sections ofthe course that omitted DYL, but this was not feasible for reasons of both logistics (ourprogram’s small size would mean that sample sizes were too small to provide reliableresults) and ethics (some students would not have the DYL content that the programperceived to be important to them).

teams.1,2,3,4This has largely been driven by industry’s needs and requirements to become more multi-disciplinary and remain competitive in the workforce. This is also seen in the accreditationrequirements of ABET where student outcomes are implicitly and/or explicitly collaborative innature, e.g. general criterion 3: student outcomes (c) “an ability to design a system, component,or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental,social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability,” (d) “an abilityto function on multidisciplinary teams,” and (g) “an ability to communicate effectively.”5Providing opportunities for students to work in cross-disciplinary teams is a desired
ethical practice grounded in science and engineering methods andstandards. The process involves face-to-face meetings and discussions with entrepreneurs of thecity, from the presentation of the problem until the delivery of the plans. Once engineers are partof society it is important that they have a stronger interaction with the wider public. So the goal ofincluding this course in the program is to provide students the opportunity to work closely withthe real local entrepreneurship environment. Apart from this, engineers need to develop broadfundamental understanding of their professional responsibilities, as well as the need to beentrepreneurial in order to understand and contribute in the context of market and businesspressures.

First, a number of professors in the Valparaiso UniversityCollege of Engineering have noticed improvements in attitude and work ethic among thestudents taking the class. Second, these students have bonded as friends based upon this longershared experience. Finally, they have taken on an almost evangelical approach to campaigningfor the continuation of the semester-long version of Creativity and Innovation in the EngineeringDesign Process. These sentiments come through in a number of the comments made by thestudents in the course evaluation (see Table 3).Table 3. Student feedback on semester-long course
camp with learning blocks creates a totally immersiveand engaging environment for the learner. At the same time, these learning blocks allowfor entrepreneurial concepts to be embedded inherently. The character traits of successfulentrepreneurs, as defined by state school standards, are adaptability, creative thinking,ethical behavior, leadership, positive attitude, and risk-taking.1 These character traits willalso be focused on in terms of outcomes.Mater ials and methodsEntrepreneurship and deeper learning outcomes have been a recent focus of industry andeducation with many new studies outlining how these skill sets can substantially changethe outcomes of students. Research findings demonstrate improved student outcomes,higher levels of
skillset and their entrepreneurial mindset in a year-long, real-world design project.Throughout the curriculum, professional skills such as oral and written communication,innovation, understanding constraints, sustainability, technical feasibility, customer value,societal benefits, economic analysis, and professional ethics are addressed with increasing depthas students develop their skillset.Course Overview The focus of this paper is the sophomore level EGE 2123: Entrepreneurial EngineeringDesign Studio course mentioned above. Specifically, in this course, students identifyopportunities for engineering design themselves within the context of the design theme“Accessibility in the Workplace”.

In addition to technical andfinancial factors, ABET requires that students consider complementary priorities in design suchas environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, andsustainability. The proposed S*Metamodel canvas approach accommodates these considerationsin a straightforward manner by including them directly in the iterative design process as essentialinformation needed to identify and understand stakeholders as well as develop relevant features.Sustainability could be included in the design canvas by identifying the environment as thestakeholder with ‘sustainability’ as the general feature.

have strong work ethics and that in general want to do things such as working with a professor or start an entrepreneurship. (Faculty member, UAI)PUC students feature similar characteristics of those at UAI. Some students enroll in engineeringwith the idea of continuing the family business. However, the school strongly encourages theteaching of entrepreneurship skills to their students so they can develop it in their professionallife, either by launching their own project or in a public or private organization. When theyengage in entrepreneurship they see it as a way of generating social impact.What are the main strategies the selected engineering schools use for the promotion ofentrepreneurship education?As a synthesis of these
