four students each were instructed to brainstorm several business opportunitiesrelevant to the biomechanics field. The proposed ideas could provide either a product or service.Teams were to identify potential customers for their ideas. Students then assessed the merits andpotential impact (to the customer(s) and society at large) of their initial ideas. Over the course ofseveral weeks, the teams continued to refine their concepts by performing market analysis toconsider resources needed (costs, personnel, facilities, manufacturing, distribution, etc.),intellectual property protections, and an understanding of their competition. This iterativeprocess continued for a couple weeks offline until the teams selected their preferred businessidea.At
throughout the academic cycle. “...students frequently question their identity, relationships, direction and worth during transition to school which produces turmoil and crisis. Stress of relocation, separation from family and friends, new people, academic challenges, discrepancy between expectations and reality, loneliness, and lack of support all significantly relate to attrition” (Lee, D., Olson, E. A., Locke, B. Michelson S. T. & Odes E, 2009, p. 5).Students past the initial transition face stressors related to making progress in research orprojects, successfully completing academic milestones, and job hunting. Even the most resilientstudents can be negatively impacted by these stressors. In the worst case

Specifically, the multidisciplinary teamwork, multiple teamleaders, and presenting engineering topics to middle and high school students. These exercisescontribute to the development of highly effective engineers who know the technical backgroundand are groomed in professional practices.AcknowledgementThe support provided by National Science Foundation under grant number 1439738 is greatlyappreciated.

used sound to map it.Retrospectively, I think that it has been worth it because it’s made me a lot more adaptable and itmade coming to college actually really easy because I already knew what it was like to start outwith no friends, no one, to have to adapt to a completely different set of rules and standards and tojust go from the start. For example, since my high school focused on science and technology, Ireally had that opportunity to sort of become a scientist. But, what I realized when working senioryear on my research project is that scientist[s] spend their whole lives delving into a problem,laying it out, describing it, but they don’t solve it at all, and I don’t think I would be able to livesuch big issues on my shoulders that I could

“maybe” want to be engineers, 22% answered "No," while 29%answered "Yes” to the same question. It should be noted that 2016 was the first year an attemptwas made to collect feedback from the participating students. In the 2016’s survey, the question“do you want to be an engineer?” had only two possible answers, “yes or no." We have receivedseveral suggestions to add a third choice of "maybe/I do not know” to the answers. The attendeeswere hesitant to give an explicit answer of "Yes" or "No” to this question. Almost half of thestudents (47%) expressed interest in Engineering compared to 29% in 2017. While this resultdoes not conclude that the students’ interest declined in 2017, it certainly implies that studentspreferred to answer “No” than “Yes
