definitely a new approach resulting in a different method of recruiting faculty for mentoringthe teams.In order to “quick start” the integration of innovation into the engineering curriculum, we createdan overall strategy of starting with piloting a Freshman class, then piloting a SeniorDesign/Capstone class, then providing pathways from the Freshman class (two semester class) tothe Senior Design/Capstone class. The concept was to introduce the key elements of innovationin the first year, including results and recommendations from [6] and [8] and the experiencesfrom an existing Freshman research class, expand on key aspects from the Freshman innovationclass in existing sophomore- and junior-level major-specific classes (again using the results
