The preliminary results provide insight intostudents’ evaluation of their success during their first semester, which is a critical semester instudents’ college careers.IntroductionProject Control is an interactive process in which actual performance is compared to plannedperformance with adjustment(s) being made to address identified deviations3.The project controlcycle has seven basic steps: (1) develop project plan, (2) establish benchmarks, (3) monitorproject performance, (4) identify deviations, (5) evaluate corrective options, (6) makeadjustment, and (7) document, report and evaluate4. When attempting to teach this projectcontrol cycle, the importance of ‘evaluate’ can be difficult to convey to students

The philosophy of mathematics affected engineering and mathematics education in theundergraduate curriculum in the 1990s. Piaget‘s schemes idea in the 1970’s, and its developmentwith detailed explanations by Piaget and Garcia in the 1980’s, influenced researchers ofundergraduate engineering and mathematics education curriculum in the 1990’s. Students’conceptual view of the function was defined by Breidenbach, Dubinsky, Hawks, and Nichols in1992, which relied on Piaget’s study of functions in 1977 (Piaget, Grize

In summary, this literature review demonstrates that empirical studies of entrepreneurshipprograms often overlook socio-demographic characteristics and simplify the conceptualization ofco-curricular experiences, suggesting a vague alignment with the curriculum.Conceptual Framework In an effort to work towards a more structured approach to studying the complexities ofengineering entrepreneurship education and its impact on students in higher education, we havechosen to position this analysis in the context of Lattuca et al.’s (2014)30 use of the Terenzini
