does not need to be the only source of innovation from research universities.Innovation can also come through students by way of purposely developed or enhanced courses,pedagogy, and experiences designed to create a spark or foster an existing spark, fan the flames,and fuel them to help them grow. It is unfortunate to create the spark in first-year students andthen ignore it until it is time for the senior design / capstone project; the innovators need tocontinue to learn, experience, and grow throughout their academic career. To be a meaningfulreal-world experience, an innovation concentration needs to incorporate learning and experienceswithin disciplines students will encounter once they have begun their professional careerincluding

As part of his Pacesetters efforts, Prof. Anderson led the charge to create a new BA in CS degree at CU that allows students in Arts and Sciences to earn a degree in computer science. This new degree program was first offered in Fall 2013 and had 240 students enroll during its first semester and now has more than 1200 majors five years later.

Furthermore, treating engineering as a solely technical field may be particularlydetrimental to students from underrepresented communities and to women, groups for whichsocial concerns and community relationships are often of importance.Despite significant effort on the part of the engineering community, engaging future engineers inways that support their trajectories into engineering careers remains a substantial challenge forengineering education programs3.

Yet, there is little research about how students are learning whileworking on these problem sets. The first author of this paper has addressed this in her prior work,and this study of open-ended modeling problems is derived from her findings [1]. Examiningstudents working on homework in control systems and fluid mechanics courses, she foundstudents are mostly engaged in conversations to get their homework done instead ofconversations to build knowledge about disciplinary concepts.

Such curricula can engage learners, respond to their backgrounds and interests,and connect with home and communities [8]. High-quality OST engineering curricula thus canenhance youth learning and engagement, and are important tools for OST educators. Recently,engineering curricula have been developed specifically for the OST community.

Toensure our graduates are competitive in the job market the academia needs to step up andprovide them the skills they need in addition to the degree they are awarded.

With that said, recent scholarship on engineering identity has also described theimportance of performance/competence for success, although these considerations alone areinsufficient for encouraging the pursuit of an engineering career [28]. Rather, performance andcompetence are mediated by interest and recognition. As we draw a parallel, it may be thatconfidence in one’s ability to be innovative is insufficient for identifying as an innovator.Simultaneously, one might also need personal and

Of course internships are often unscripted experiences in which learning is emergentand is unique to each learner in each situation (Grose, 2017). In addition, on many campuses,the management of internships is highly decentralized, there is no common vocabulary forarticulating now internships fit into student careers, and most assessment of internships is a longway from capturing their full potential as learning activities (Grose, 2017).To make the connection between academic learning and workplace learning, universities arecreating signature assignments and
