This two-year subcontract of theMentorship 360 program at Arizona State University sought to instill a new level ofentrepreneurial mindset (EM) into their career journey.

subproblems and deciding how to approach each one. This topic is especially important because many engineers work on design teams, and themembers of a team need to work together to carry out the design process. An ad hoc approach toplanning the design process will create confusion and increase the risks of project failure (e.g.,poor product or system performance as well as cost and schedule overruns). Despite the growing need for design process planning skills, existing engineering educationprograms fail to provide opportunities for engineering students to learn these meta-reasoning skills.Many engineering students learn only standard product and systems development processes [2, 3].In a typical engineering design course, the students follow

Weekly modules were developed to include one socialinnovation case study (including presentation rubric) per week and leadership lessons. The classproceeded in the flipped classroom approach, where each student presented their perspective andanalysis of the assigned social innovation case study, followed by interactive discussion within thegroup. Throughout the class, students advanced their understanding of the attributes of socialinnovation and leadership and its context to globalization and social equity.
