The speakers provided examples of how the Structured Innovation process has beenutilized to solve tough problems.Body of KnowledgeStructured Innovation, like other sciences, has a “Body of Knowledge” that is key tounderstanding the science. Therefore, we focused on teaching the “Body of Knowledge” and itsapplication to solving real world problems. This course is the first step in the journey of learningthe language of innovation. The best way to learn is by doing. This is why experiential learningis so important. The following describes the foundational elements and/or components ofStructured Innovation that were taught in

-centeredapproach replaces the pre-planned lectures with a project requiring students to design and build a device like ahuman-powered pump, a wind turbine, or an electronic apparatus. The instructor becomes a mentor who guidesthe students through the design and construction process. In this way, the students acquire ownership over theirproducts, and they learn that engineering is an interdisciplinary process, not just a collection of concepts,equations and facts. Overall, the student-centered approach instills confidence and a willingness to makechoices and assumptions needed to obtain results. Furthermore, it teaches students that teamwork is essential in

.V. Project ScopeThe initial step in the architectural design process was the development of a list of the types offacilities required to support the functions of the school and provide the necessaryaccommodations for the student body. Once this list was compiled, a required size needed to beassigned to each category of building. The size was determined from the requirements of thespecific task the particular building needed to support and the number of individuals intended touse the building.The technical college is intended to provide training in computer science, auto mechanics,construction, and hotel management. Each of these areas requires space for classrooms,shops/laboratories, a library, storage, and faculty offices totaling

WhenUniversity Trustee Dennis Keller ’63 made the generous gift to the School of Engineering for anew building, the library received a new home in the Friend Center for Engineering Education.Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Henry Cobb of Pei, Cobb, Freed and Partners,Friend Center opened its doors in September 2001. The building houses high-tech classroomsand computer clusters, videoconferencing facilities, a spacious convocation hall, a 250-seatauditorium, along with the Engineering Library, for a total of 70,500 square feet.

majors, including Electrical and Computer Engineering students. Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.
