own ideas.These studies seem to indicate that aspects of students' EM improves over time but that at thetime of graduation, there is still a significant gap in comparison to those working asprofessionals.Research seems to indicate that incorporation of entrepreneurially minded learning (EML)throughout engineering curricula encourages EM growth [13, 32-33], though many studies haveaddressed the need for more research on the impact of these initiatives [18, 31, 33-34]. There area lack of studies that address longitudinal EM development by following a single cohort ofstudents. This study will attempt to address this gap by providing insight into the changes in EMwithin an engineering program through analysis of ESEMA data from the same cohort

universities [1][2], butalso helps students embody design thinking and an entrepreneurial mindset [3].Regardless of the discipline applied, a common thread to engineering for healthcare (and othercomplex problems) is the application of design thinking. A core value of design thinking is thehuman-centered approach to solutions that can be effectively implemented [4]. In the trainingprocess, students are asked to determine the customer’s needs and to evaluate whether theproposed design is truly a solution to the problem. Importantly, coming up with an effectivedesign relies on a few habits of mind that are found in many innovators. The KEEN organizationcomprises these habits as the three C’s – curiosity, connections, creating value [5]. In

We therefore call upon researchers to explore morecritically learning contexts with an eye toward exposing the implicit White, male dominant normsand their effects on the discipline. As many have shown [12], [41] engineers have been ratheruncritical of their working contexts—looking for alternate explanations and anemic solutions likerecruitment to resolve inequity.

Female faculty need to be encouraged to improve their leadership skills byattending training, workshops, conferences, etc.Conclusions and Future WorkAutoethnographic narratives of three female faculty in engineering who have experienced genderbias have enabled this topic to be explored. The findings from this research are consistent with thelarge body of literature on gender bias in academia. The recommendations indicate the need forfurther research, support, and awareness for female faculty who face these biases.The authors plan to continue their work on gender

To meet the demand of developing entrepreneurially minded engineers,engineering institutions “will need to keep pace by offering opportunities to acquireentrepreneurial knowledge and experience” (Besterfield-Sacre et al., 2012). Considering theemergent state of engineering entrepreneurship education, the assessment of entrepreneurshipprograms is important and necessary to identify best practices for teaching entrepreneurship toengineering students.Although investigation of the impacts of engineering entrepreneurship is a relatively new field ofstudy, investigation of a range of student outcomes has already begun to emerge.

The 2007 physics and engineeringcurriculum was designed with four main objectives in mind: to ensure that students had aconceptual understanding of mechanics fundamentals, to challenge students to use theirknowledge of mechanics in an engineering design competition, to expose students to advancedtopics in physics, and finally to provide students with an opportunity to conduct guided research.Several assessment methods were used to determine
