Courses focused on theexplicit teaching of knowledge, skills, and attitudes associated with innovation andentrepreneurship are inherently able to include learning objectives that align with many of theABET student outcomes, including how to: understand the context in which an engineeringdesign will be implemented, effectively communicate ideas, work in multidisciplinary teams, andparticipate in ethical decision making. The three academic opportunities offered at the Universityof Illinois Urbana-Champaign which are discussed in this paper include: 1) a semester-longintroductory course

The main research question this poses is how doesconcept mapping affect STEM students' understanding of entrepreneurial mindset?ABET Computing Criteria lists these three student outcomes: 1. Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts. 2. Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed judgments in computing practice based on legal and ethical principles. 3. Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program’s discipline.

It aimed to explore common attributes between innovative individuals andfounders without limiting participants' responses. Ethical approval was obtained fromStanford University's Institutional Review Board, and interviews were conducted via Zoomwith consent for recording. Twenty-six hours of interview recordings were captured andtranscribed, and transcripts were anonymized to ensure confidentiality. More information onthe strategy
