To meet the demand of developing entrepreneurially minded engineers,engineering institutions “will need to keep pace by offering opportunities to acquireentrepreneurial knowledge and experience” (Besterfield-Sacre et al., 2012). Considering theemergent state of engineering entrepreneurship education, the assessment of entrepreneurshipprograms is important and necessary to identify best practices for teaching entrepreneurship toengineering students.Although investigation of the impacts of engineering entrepreneurship is a relatively new field ofstudy, investigation of a range of student outcomes has already begun to emerge.
