Moreover, entrepreneurs in the technology field are viewed ascritical to the future success of the United States and its position as a global leader1. Manyuniversities around the U.S. have begun to implement curricular and co-curricular programs inan attempt to influence and expose students to experiences that will foster entrepreneurialthinking. More research is being conducted to investigate the impact of these programmaticinitiatives and identify what factors promote an entrepreneurial mindset.In this study we investigate how both interest and intention have influenced engineering alumnitowards entrepreneurship.

. IntroductionResearch in engineering education over the past 15 years has shown that US undergraduateengineering student enrollment in decline while the demand for qualified engineering graduatesis expected to increase1. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts a 22% growth injobs for fields related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) between2004 and 2014 (U. S. Department of Labor, 2005)2. It revealed that fewer than 40 % of studentswho enter college intending to major in a STEM field complete college with a STEM degreetoday3. The engineering graduation rate is even lower for Texas Higher Education institutions4.Research by ACT indicates that fewer than one in five 12th graders have both high interest inSTEM and high

programs, a critical first step is to understand the entrepreneurialinterests and characteristics of undergraduate engineering students as compared with studentsmajoring in business. Comparing these two groups of students suggests some of the ways thatbusiness-based courses might be modified for an engineering audience. In addition, someentrepreneurship programs are designed to service engineering and business majors;understanding how these students compare in terms of entrepreneurial interests andcharacteristics would allow for a better designed course for both groups of students. Nabi et al.have reported that business students showed higher entrepreneurial intent than did engineeringand technology students, based on their survey of undergraduate

. However, in the past year, the minorhas transitioned to a university-wide minor with two clusters housed in the College ofEngineering. The entrepreneurship minor currently has five clusters, which are open to studentsof any major. Two of these clusters are housed within the College of Engineering (Technology-Based Entrepreneurship and Social Entrepreneurship).At the university, first-year students who intend to major in engineering are given a designationof ENGR. They are not formally admitted into a specific engineering major until the end of theirsophomore year. Students can formally choose a minor after their formal major is selected.However, students can begin to take courses towards the minor prior to their major selection.ParticipantsIn

There are also other trends worth mentioning, in particular in the context of the most recentglobal industrial recession, such as: • Growing anti-globalization and protectionist sentiments • De-industrialization of the highly-developed economies • Accelerated progress of technologies. The extended world-wide effects of recession and what is referred to as a “jobless”recovery from it, bring into focus the skills that future engineers should acquire in the course oftheir studies in order to be successful over the lifespan of their professional careers. A goodmodel to pursue in the curriculum updates or development is a T-shaped profile1 of a futureengineer
