engineering preparation beyond knowledge and skills.The next generation of entrepreneurial-minded engineers will be expected to demonstratetraditional technical expertise of an engineer as well as organizational level leadership tomeet the needs of changing markets [5]. These types of engineering entrepreneurial skillshave been shown to be teachable, yet assessment and evaluation of engineeringentrepreneurial learning is an underdeveloped field of research [6]. In a literature review byZappe [1], the definition of the term “entrepreneurial mindset” varied substantially. Forinstance, Worcester Polytechnic Institute stated EM was an approach to solve problems andway of life but others mentioned it can also be comprised of characteristics such

Every week, we would all combine our individualknowledge and experience to work together and complete the build as a team, which was themost rewarding to me.”“The aspect of flexibility made the biggest impact on me because it allowed the group membersto realize how we can do anything that we set our mind to.

problem seems to be in the fact that the academic foundation that should have beendeveloped over the years in K-12, is not at the level that is expected from incoming freshmen.This raises the question: how can engineering students receive adequate training if they are notcollege-ready? One has to keep in mind that one-year programs are likely unable to help studentscatch up on all K-12 skills and knowledge. The task seems even more formidable consideringthat study habits and academic attitudes are usually formed and solidified during K-12.Clearly there is no single remedy for the problem. Study habits, general attitude towardseducation, and academic preparedness need to be addressed. A solution for the latter issue maybe obtained by integrating

Focusing on leading UGTAs through the use of this modelis expected to increase the empowerment as seen by the UGTA. Similarly, Weidert et al. foundevidence suggesting that increased UGTA responsibilities is associated with more overallsatisfaction, enjoyment, and perceived benefits of the position [13]. Last, the KEEN foundationstresses that today’s engineers must become more entrepreneurially minded to stay competitivein the current economic climate [1].

forum for creative expression.Though many believe academic makerspaces have the potential to transform the educationalexperience [10], it can be difficult to implement class projects that involve fabrication, especiallyin core classes that have over 50 students and no lab sessions. Traditional faculty who do notteach engineering design may hesitate to ask students to fabricate a physical product because oftheir own lack of familiarity with makerspaces. Furthermore, even those motivated by the idea ofentrepreneurially minded learning may see a large lecture-based class as inhospitable to anyhands-on project. Furthermore, though academic makerspaces are freely available to students forextracurricular projects, not all students take advantage of

Also, because every student is awarded a Bachelor of Science degree,they take a wide breadth of core classes, many of which they do not like (e.g., ECE 315). So,imagine our struggle to motivate when we teach a class at 0750, with the students half asleep andhalf of them wishing they didn’t have to take the course.
