identifying areas ofimprovement within a given system and suggesting opportunities for innovation. Thepromise of many programs is to use ST to evaluate existing knowledge and resourcesrelevant to a particular health systems issue, plan and execute an innovative solution toaddress the issue at hand, evaluate the outcomes of the implementation, and present thesolution to key stakeholders in the host organization engaged in personal self-evaluationand critical reflection [30]. More importantly, the programs promise to deliver“applications of ethical theory to health reform, systems approach to health programmingplanning and evaluation, international comparison of health systems, and an in-depthinvestigation of health sector subsystems or building blocks

Besides teaching both undergraduate and graduate design and education related classes at Stanford University, she conducts research on engineering education. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 The Nexus of Entrepreneurship and Innovation–a new construct for looking at the creative contributions of engineering graduatesABSTRACTEngineers are called upon to possess strong analytical and communication skills, exhibitpractical ingenuity, and be creative thinkers, all the while upholding high ethical standards. Inmore recent times they are also expected to be innovative and
filter and clean data, facilitating numerical comparisons of theLikert scale. Data analysis involves employing specific procedures for the establishedquestionnaires, with Pearson's correlation coefficient applied to the section developed in theresearch. The data are exported to statistical software for analysis. Quality of Research: Theresearch's quality is buttressed by the validity of the instrument, evaluated through expertjudgment, and reliability assessed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The instrument's reliability isset at a high level (0.887), indicating internal consistency. Despite adhering to ethical protocols,the study's limitations include the potential for bias in participants' responses and the limitedgeneralizability of results
establishedinstruments in peer-reviewed literature, such as the Multifactorial Leadership Questionnaire(MLQ) and the Scale for Effective Communication in Teams (SECTS), modified for aneducational context [20,46,47], and can be seen in Table 1.The collected data were processed using the Qualtrics platform, which allowed for filtering andcleaning, facilitating numerical analysis. The Pearson correlation coefficient was applied to thedata from the questionnaires, with the results exported to statistical software for further analysis.The quality of the research was ensured through expert evaluation of the instrument’s validity, andits reliability was confirmed with a high Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.887, indicating stronginternal consistency.

a detailed description for each category and achievement level was given. Thecomplete rubric is provided in Appendix B.The EME as a class project is tied to ABET Student Outcome Three: “an ability to communicateeffectively with a range of audiences” and Seven “an ability to acquire and apply new knowledgeas needed, using appropriate learning strategies” [22]. For fall 2025, ABET SO4 (“an ability torecognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informedjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic,environmental, and societal contexts”) will be tied to the EME. For SO3, science communicationas a tangible skill feeds into an engineer’s ability to create value for
interviews to gather qualitative data, enabling acomprehensive understanding of the participants' nuanced experiences [46]. Our interviewprotocol was meticulously designed with a structured framework to ensure consistency andcomparability among responses, drawing from best practices in exploratory qualitativeresearch [48]. 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
