Implementation of Industry-Inspired Project Management Elements in an Entrepreneurial Capstone SequenceAbstractThis paper explores the implementation of project management elements (PME) in a three-semester capstone course sequence. Following an entrepreneurial model, multidisciplinary teamsof four or five students work on an engineering project of their choice, which involves design,fabrication, and testing. Teams are required to submit weekly PME designed based on an agileworkflow. These submissions include weekly individual reports and team meeting minutes,documents similar to those that students can expect to use as working professionals or to managetheir projects as part of an entrepreneurial start-up

[4] Various approaches havebeen found to be successful through the assessment of sustainability knowledge and skillslearned in activities, modules, and courses and across the civil engineering curriculum [5].Among those approaches, integrating sustainability in the capstone design is one of the mosteffective teaching approaches. A capstone course is an integral part of Civil Engineeringundergraduate education. It requires students to apply knowledge and skills acquired in earliercourse work from a Civil Engineering curriculum in a design that solves real-world problems ormimics real-world projects [6
