Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competitive Activities on Engineering Students’ Entrepreneurial IntentionAbstract:An increased number of technological innovation and entrepreneurial competitiveactivities have been organized in engineering schools and beyond to raise students’entrepreneurial awareness and cultivate relevant skills. In this study, a mixed method researchbased on Planned Behavior Theory is being used to explore the outcomes of innovation andentrepreneurial competitions, in particular the influence of engaging in these competitiveactivities on engineering students’ entrepreneurial intention. This work-in-progress firstreports the construction of a customized survey, in particular the process of identifying

from using concepts in kinetics and kinematics in an application that also trainsthem on business planning, cost analysis of new biotechnology and market analysis. There is a need tointroduce engineers to the entrepreneurial mindset which can help to engage students in the course materialand become more curious about the world around them. This paper aims to demonstrate how a semester-long human body motion analysis project can teach innovation and business skills in the engineeringclassroom through the use of an entrepreneurially minded learning (EML) module.IntroductionIt is valuable to implement entrepreneurial mindset in the undergraduate engineering classroom.

Co-chaired by the authors, the committee engagedwith campus and the regional business community to devise an action plan. The three pillars ofthe plan included a faculty entrepreneurial learning experience, developing a makerspace, andenhancing outreach to the public and private business community. The focus of this paper is onhow the makerspace was developed, challenges that were faced and overcome, initial results,lessons learned, and future direction.Makerspace DevelopmentThe overarching goal for the makerspace was to create and foster a

requirements, not businessrequirements or specific functional requirements. Business requirements are necessary for thedevelopment team to truly understand why the project is occurring and what business value isput forth by completing the project. Business value should always be driving the softwaredevelopment, and it is important for all members of the team to understand the needs of thebusiness. Developers though, must implement individual functional requirements. Figure 4: A Disciplined Agile Delivery Lifecycle.

The average agile team spends at least one month in upfront project planningand requirements modeling [15

The traditional business plan approach bears similarities to therigid planning and design of the Waterfall model and it consequently suffers from analogousinflexibility. Research has found that adopting a formal business plan is not associated withincreased odds of success [2]. Instead, contemporary Lean Startup methods [3] emphasizecontinuous innovation through experimentation and adaptation to evolving knowledge of themarket.Accordingly, entrepreneurship curricula are evolving to provide experiential learning in adoptingLean methods. There is a movement to apply more hands-on learning in entrepreneurshipeducation [4], including a shift toward PBL pedagogy for business venture projects [5]. Whileentrepreneurship

As a result of our work with the survey and interview data, we are in theprocess of creating the KEEN Competition Teams Skills Map, which adapts the KES to thecompetition team context, revises some of the KES skills and adds skills that are not yet a part ofthe KES.

The intervention group is students who enrolled to the pilotcourse of the Engineering and Business Innovation Experience. In contrast, the control group isthose who had neither took this course before nor had any prior experiences with similar courses.The innovation team began to collect the Wave 1 data in Fall 2019 and plans to collect Wave 2data in late Spring 2020.
