, students who had an interest in graduate programs were alsoencouraged to take an M-CURE that focused on writing peer reviewed papers and transition to graduateprograms [3,5].The last element of the CURE experiences was tied to development of an entrepreneurial mindset (EM).EM for this project is defined as a set of attitudes, dispositions, habits, and behaviors that shape a uniqueapproach to problem-solving, innovation, and value creation. In the context of research, we are focused onhelping students connect research with value creation. We have defined a research mindset as a broaderidea that includes many facets of an entrepreneurial mindset. These factors in turn are connected to theidea of student-centered research [6].All of the CUREs in the

engineeringfundamentals.IntroductionMore than ever, the world needs innovative products, services and organizations to help societymove forward. Those who will design these advances often seek opportunities in college to bothdevelop and test new ways to solve problems in ever-growing ecosystems and new engineeringapplications. Though engineering programs often excel at teaching technical capabilities,communication, leadership, teamwork and project-based learning activities gain less attention. Inaddition, engineering programs typically lack a structured method to apply entrepreneurialthinking to their studies, where questions of financial viability, social usefulness and potentialdemand for their engineering solutions are integrated into their coursework. Therefore, co

]. 2. Sustainability and climate change (S/CC) topics. S/CC problems have recently been coming to the forefront as problems that need to be urgently addressed. Given the important role engineers play in transportation, manufacturing, design, and other areas relevant to S/CC, it is important for engineering students to be exposed to these topics throughout their studies. o Within S/CC topics, the concept of circularity (as in the circular economy) is discussed and included as a requirement for student projects. In this course and in this paper, circularity is referred to as Cradle to Cradle (C2C), based on the book by McDonough and Braungart [3]. The C2C approach promotes a

In addition, Someinnovation programs require more resources and support to help students turn their ideas intoviable enterprises or businesses, which is another reason why many undergraduate programs needto be more effective and sustainable [1]. For example, a program might provide financial supportfor student projects but without mentoring, business development assistance, or networkingopportunities. It may be challenging for undergraduate students in some programs to continuedeveloping and building their ideas once the program is done. Hence, it requires committedleadership

Communications course. EML is a pedagogy that aims to inculcate the entrepreneurialmindset (EM) in students, specifically the 3C framework of the EM: curiosity, connections, andcreating value. EML techniques aim to increase student curiosity, improve the student’s ability tomake connections between disparate sources of information, and ultimately equip them to createvalue for themselves and society. Thus, EML is closely related to inquiry-based learning, problem-based learning, and project-based learning. The distinction between EML and these otherpedagogical approaches is the focus on a value-creation mindset.EML is integrated into this course primarily through three frameworks: (1) DevelopingConnections, which employs risk factor consideration when

While CUREs have many similarities to traditional laboratory courses or courseresearch projects, the work students do as part of a CURE is framed in a fundamentally differentway. Research projects within CUREs ideally have direct and indirect impact on the broaderscientific community and offer students the opportunity to share study findings with externalstakeholders [8].
