guidance anddirection for students to generate innovative ideas for their projects.Given CoE’s limited experience in entrepreneurial-minded learning (EML), CoE believes thisteaching approach proved useful tool to engage students in coming up with relevant ideas forprojects and classroom activities that create market value. CoE also believes that thecombination of embedded EML ( [1], [2], [3], [4]) activities and the system engineering processprovide a rewarding learning experience for students. CoE also believes that the system thinkingfound in the entrepreneurial concept aligns well with the system engineering approach for thelast several years in making project ideas become reality ( [5], [6] [7], [8], [9]).Accreditation Board for Engineering
