Despite theseconcerns, the majority of students responded positively, indicating that their labs and projects preparedthem for future endeavors and appreciated the limited autonomy to explore their own ideas. Theintegration of entrepreneurial education into the manufacturing curriculum has shown promising results inencouraging engineering students to engage more deeply with I&E programming. The outcomes of thisproject suggest students see some value in I&E content integration and that there exists a viable path forother engineering departments to foster entrepreneurial thinking in their students.

Entrepreneurship is recognized as essential for theeconomic and social development of a country, yet technical career programs often lack sufficientfocus on the collaborative aspects of entrepreneurship, such as leadership, team communication,and mediation.

However, for a student toparticipate in research, they generally must take the initiative to seek out a position on a facultymembers’ research team or through an industry position. The low number of available positionsand the inherent challenges of pursuing this pathway for many students is a significant barrierthat leaves them without the opportunity to engage in research during their undergraduatecareers.Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) provide a potential solution tothese challenges related to student access.

the lack of diversity within the engineering profession; female students and students of colorremain underrepresented in STEM majors and STEM careers [2]. The population of studentswho major in the STEM fields and who enter STEM careers do not reflect current demographicsof the United States population. Despite progress in gender and racial equity in STEM careers,STEM fields have historically been and continue to be dominated by white men, particularly inengineering, computer sciences, and physics [2]. For example, although women and men receiveundergraduate degrees at about the same rate, women account for only 30% of all STEM degreeholders and have particularly low representation in engineering [3], holding just 12 percent ofengineering
