entrepreneurship faculty membersand instructors, we decided to survey both groups.23, 24 This study had two foci: First, we wantedto examine faculty beliefs and practices in entrepreneurship versus those in engineering design.We asked questions of faculty concerning their teaching practices and the ideal instructor in theirdomain. Second, we wanted to gather faculty beliefs regarding how they felt entrepreneurshipshould be taught to students. Did faculty in both domains feel that entrepreneurship could betaught? Specifically, what attributes of entrepreneurship did they feel were more likely able tobe taught versus those they felt were more inherent to personality?The following three research questions were examined: 1. What are the teaching practices

Engineering Faculty MemberI. Introduction The elements of innovation and entrepreneurship have always been important in theeconomic vitality of the United States. However, in the rapid pace of globalization of industryand commerce, these elements have become not only important, but essential to the continuedgrowth and continued health of the US economy. Innovation and entrepreneurship are the keysto starting new businesses and growing existing businesses in a world awash with commodityproducts because these elements enable the maintenance of a profit margin that permits growthand continued innovation. Without continued innovation and entrepreneurship, businesses andthe economy are faced with a race to the bottom of price competition and

amuch higher rate than students, who again seemed more concerned with starting a business,finding financial success, and independence than their instructors. The recent economic downturn, poor job market, and increases in tuition rates maygreatly influence the current goals of students, giving them a different outlook than theirinstructors (or possibly even previous generations of students) especially in regard to the need tofind a new manner of generating income. In addition, to possible generational differencesbetween the two groups of participants, they may also differ in their level of cognitive and careerdevelopment. Faculty members are certainly at a different stage of their career than students. Amajority of faculty members have

Education, 2016 Promoting the Entrepreneurial Mindset through Faculty DevelopmentAbstractOur university is part of a group of about 20 universities that are seeking to improve ourgraduates’ capabilities by helping them to develop an entrepreneurial mindset while they are yetstudents. While technical knowledge is essential to engineering, engineers will be more likely tofind success and personal fulfillment when they couple these skills with a mindset to createextraordinary value for others.This perspective is not innate to many students, but they can be exposed to these concepts usingthe curriculum, if faculty themselves know how to do this. This leads to the critical issue ofappropriate faculty development. Our program is committed to

While providing a more holistic experience, thehandling of these issues often presents a further challenge of balancing the primary educationalmission and scope of the projects against sponsor expectations for value from their investment ofeffort and financial resources. Furthermore, Michigan Tech views these project experiences tobe a potential IP generator through student development of new products and technologies thatcould then ideally be commercialized through licensing or new business start-ups. How rights tothis student generated IP are negotiated then becomes a key factor in allowing for this possibility.For industrially sponsored projects, this results in an

The first sixcredits of core coursework are earned in two classes that focus on teaching and developing theentrepreneurial mindset and entrepreneurial leadership. Students then complete their cluster-based coursework followed by earning the final three core course credits in the capstone class,which focuses on new venture creation. The cluster-based course sequences were designed by faculty members in their respectivecolleges to address issues directly relevant to entrepreneurship and innovation

An innovation ecosystem isthe result of interactions between diverse stakeholders in a community with a vision ofachieving goals through innovation or targeted creativity. Toward this end, facultyleaders in innovation from diverse disciplines gathered in a workshop to explore tactics tonurture, support and promote these activities and new initiatives. Specifically, this groupof faculty from engineering, management, arts, humanities and social sciences met to: 1. Build an awareness of all of the diverse activities and identify how they tie into

Challenges include the need to address product-related issues such asenvironmental, health, and safety concerns; field testing; and manufacturing.

I think we’re still to the stone’s edge of the traditional with very little emphasis on design only because faculty do not understand design. I think we can look forward to the time that will change. I don’t know how long a time we’re talking about, because obviously it takes academia a while to make those changes.”14 The need for a “new” engineer is gaining widespread acceptance15-17 and details ofinnovative experiments in engineering entrepreneurship education have been published.18-22Organizations such as the

Occasionally, such strong emphasis on industry engagement places aneed for faculty themselves to have such experience or to integrate partners from industry orelsewhere who can provide insights.20 Such a strong focus on working with industry canhowever restrict the course projects to solving known real-world problems in the industry, ratherthan focusing on creating innovative solutions and capitalizing on new market

President Williams was quick to make the necessary corrections so thatthe program would be in complete alignment with the MOU. Compliance to the requirements ofthe MOU is an important element of success of a new program in start-up mode and thus an earlylesson learned was the importance of creating systems and processes early.
