Entrepreneurial Mindset (EML) Modules for Chemical Engineering Courses

Engineering CoursesAbstract Traditional chemical engineering curriculum focus on the math, science and engineeringfundamentals culminating in a senior year process design course. These courses are excellentpreparation for most chemical engineering jobs, but they typically omit very practical skills suchas curiosity, connections and creating value. The lack of these fundamentals of the entrepreneurialmindset puts chemical engineers at a disadvantage in today’s workplace. The faculty at VillanovaUniversity have made the effort to focus on EML (entrepreneurial minded learning) by creatingmodules that can be implemented in already existing courses. These modules all vary in time,scale, and application, but have the same goal: to introduce chemical

.” Students cited two ways inwhich courses in the Engineering Entrepreneurship Minor were distinctive from other courses:they foster a “new way of thinking” and they emphasize application over theory.Students disclosed that courses in the minor encouraged them to think in ways that they did notencounter in their other engineering courses. For example, one junior said that the minor,“emphasizes creativity which, for engineers, we don’t really have that opportunity in our otherclasses.” Other elements of this “different way of thinking” included constantly searching foropportunities to create solutions and considering the next step to fix problems. One studentexplained that “learning how to get your mind to think a certain way – to look for

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.

Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN). The KEEN framework [5]is based on the premise that an entrepreneurial mindset is characterized by a persistent curiosityof all things, the skills to make connections between seemingly unrelated things, and an ever-present goal to create value. The dimensions of curiosity, connections, and creating value areoften referred to as the 3C’s. In addition to these three dimensions, the KEEN framework addsopportunity and impact as complementary skills within the realm of the entrepreneurial mindset.The framework provides specific learning outcomes for the five dimensions; see Table 1.
