Entrepreneurship & Engineering Innovation

Practices Engineering and entrepreneurship educators are paying more attention to the generationof intellectual property (IP) by students as involvement in the invention and innovation increases.Universities are investing in educational and experiential programs designed to equip studentswith entrepreneurial skills projects to prepare them for the contemporary job market. Also,entrepreneurial opportunities are more accessible given the lower startups costs associated withsoftware and apps, which allow more undergraduate to participate in entrepreneurship early intheir college experiences (Pilz, 2012). These result from entrepreneurship courses orcompetitions where students create projects on their own or in partnership with industry

The Bell program, a Bachelor of Science in Engineering program, wasestablished in 2019 with an aim to increase student success, decrease student debt, and allowstudents to gain up to two years of on-the-job experience prior to graduation. In the process ofprogram development, the Bell program has been identified, in a study by MIT, as an “emergingglobal leader in engineering education” [4].This engineering education model featuring project-based learning is based off an existingprogram, Iron Range Engineering, which has been around for over ten years.

This natural preference for learning is reflected in the genericlearning pyramid that was first proposed by National Teaching Laboratory Institute at theirBethel, Maine campus in the early 1960’s and the related work have been proposed by severalother researchers [31-34]. Though rightly criticized, the pyramid provides a measure of contentretention from lectures (5%), laboratory experiments (70%), and design projects (90%). Thisdisparity in content retention was recognized by the 5th century B.C Chinese proverb, “What Ihear, I forget. What I see, I remember. What I do, I understand.” ENDEAVOR harnesses

challenges.Designers are faced with the constant need for reiteration and reframing as they work towardsmeeting the often-evolving constraints and specifications of a project. One of the mostchallenging factors designers must account for is the consideration of stakeholders. Stakeholdersare defined as all individuals who affect and/or are affected by the design and design process [1];hence, they play a major role in contributing to the effectiveness of a design. Stakeholder needs,safety, behaviors, and preferences when interacting with a design will impact whatconsiderations engineers must consider when designing. Overlooking these needs not only canbe detrimental to the overall effectiveness of the final design, but more critically, can haveadverse social
