These effortsyielded multiple peer-reviewed journal papers that were coauthored by undergraduate studentsand their graduate mentors and faculty members. Table 3 shows a summary of key assessment findings. Results are based on a sample of51 undergraduate students from the first two years of assessment with participation rates of71.4% and 81.8%, respectively. Approximately 40% of the sample were women and 60% werefrom underrepresented racial minority backgrounds. These results provide insight into theprogram evolution as well as the granularity of students’ gains and satisfactions.

Blurring Entrepreneurial level concepts with individual story phenomena. Many confuse the big picture definition of entrepreneurship with individual level entrepreneuring activity. Specifically, audiences sometime assume that the confident, clear entrepreneur’s delivery of his story indicates an equal strength of conviction, and clarity in their personal life. In fact, the reality may be something very different. During the first class meeting, Jon (introduced earlier) a graduate student and new company-founder, confidently shared his non

.” Students always show interest in things(proposals) that are related to personal benefits and/or career aspirations (i.e. what am I going todo with this?). Since most engineering curricula in the first 2 years are not necessarilyengineering or design based (ABET curriculum requirements call for one year combination ofbasic math and sciences plus a general education component), freshmen cornerstone classes suchas ours are a way to weave the larger story of being an engineer into the first year studentexperience and perhaps even help with learning gains (and motivation) in those courses.Teaching FrameworksA number of teaching frameworks for engineering courses have been described elsewhere16 andinclude: 1) Project-Based Learning (PBL)- projects
