To ensure successful execution, two staff members, who are professional advisorsunder the leadership of the Associate Dean for Student Affairs, serve the role of full-timecoordinators over the duration of the program. Under their direction, a team of undergraduatestudent mentors, alumni of previous STEPUP classes, are selected to help with various activities.During the summer, these students are actively engaged in direct mentoring of students andperforming resident assistants’ tasks in the residence hall.

This has been accomplished through industry-university partnerships with pharmaceutical and petrochemical companies. Several grants fromthe US Environmental Protection Agency have supported initiatives in green chemistry,engineering and design. These projects have the broader goal of supporting sustainability in thechemical industry.IntroductionToo often the teaching of a technical subject like green engineering is limited to an individualclass experience or one dimensional laboratory or design experience.

We start with the premise that there are twokinds of innovation: market-pull and knowledge-push. Market-pull innovations are those inwhich entrepreneurs identify a customer need first through customer discovery and then seek thetechnology required. Business schools traditionally focus on teaching entrepreneurs how torespond to market-pulls. Knowledge-pull innovations originate with an inventor or scientist; theentrepreneur then strives to connect the laboratory discovery and technical innovations with acustomer need. We believe that knowledge-push innovations often
