This project includesthree degree-counted elective courses that together create an IP concentration in an engineeringBS curriculum. The intent of the project is to generate within students a deep understanding of IPrequirements for creating novel, nonobvious, and non-infringing designs. In addition, the ESIP-Project is designed to teach IP concepts as they relate to engineering design, as well as criticalthinking skills and innovation. More specifically, students will be prepared to engage in prior artreview, identify what is needed to obtain enforceable designs, and apply strategies to avoidinfringement of existing patents.

, but most projects aredominated by design and build activities. The customer needs, business, and societal aspects takea back seat while the projects focus on technical knowledge and ability6.Instead of taking the traditional approach, we are trying to incorporate the entrepreneurialmindset into all of our engineering students, starting with freshman engineering courses andending with their senior design capstone courses. We decided to entice students by exposingthem to engineering entrepreneurship from very early in their program of study, i.e., the firstsemester of the freshmen year. This strategy is inline with the observations of Bilen et al.9 andGeorgi et al.7 who note that younger students are more interested in entrepreneurship. They

These projects are focused onconnecting a team of motivated students with a client to develop a useful solution to their problem.The academic curriculum does not include many opportunities to connect classroom learning withpractical design prior to senior capstone projects. Providing students this opportunity not onlyhelps make the world a better place, but it also changes what it means to be an engineer, instillinga sense of global value into their work.

Similarly, class projects centered on real-world problems can befacilitated through the makerspace, urging students to develop a functional prototype that willsatisfy stakeholder needs [17].2.4 Communication and Collaboration:Much of the existing research on makerspace outcomes has emphasized student development ofboth communication and collaboration skills.
