American c Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Thinking Entrepreneurially about Your CareerAbstractThis Work-in-Progress paper outlines an approach that a faculty member can utilize to takeownership of their career. Although many full-time faculty, whether mid-career, tenure-track, ornontenure-track, do not think of themselves as entrepreneurial, it is imperative that one isentrepreneurially minded (EM) to succeed in academia. The tasks that a faculty membercompletes each day: teaching, obtaining research dollars, managing and recruiting students

Business Model Canvas (BMC) (Osterwalder et al., 2010).Rather than creating market value, as in the BMC, the intention is to help a faculty member intentionallynavigate a career of fulfilment and purpose. Just as the BMC implies that there is no one way to start asuccessful business, there is no one way to be a successful faculty member. Several design principles from 1the BMC were used. First, a canvas is a single page, with large blank spaces that invite exploration andflexibility. Simple frameworks reduce cognitive load and can be more easily internalized, such that theycan become a persistent mental image to help make future decisions

First, it’s difficult to find academic institutions that appreciate and would even considerhiring an engineer from industry who has not published in an academic journal since graduate school.However, some institutions do value and require industry experience; though if published research isnot on the CV then teaching experience must be, particularly for a teaching focused campus.Once the switch has been made from industry to academia, the new professor can bring some greatpractical insight and real-life examples into the classroom.
