Activity. She obtained a Ph.D. in English Literature from Chiba University in 2002. Her current main research interests are: 1) how including humanities courses in an engineering education curriculum can help students to gain flexibility, and an appreciation of equity, and a greater richness of ideas; 2) finding and solving the systematic issues impacting the effectiveness of engineering education, specifically in the context of project-based learnings; and 3) assessing the impact of interdisciplinary engi- neering project-based learnings. Below are her recent presentations at international conferences: WERA 2022, APAIE 2022, IIAI DSIR 2021, IIAI DSIR 2020, WERA 2019. She obtained the Outstanding Paper Award in DSIR

moreopportunities for simulation activities, and scaffolding more of the skills that go into connectingwith, communicating with, and collaborating with others. They write: “These findings suggestthat, first, the university needs to change the curriculum of entrepreneurship courses by bringingpractitioners as instructors, conducting fieldwork with more compositions than theories in theclassroom.” (p. 7). Wardana et al. (2020) also argue that, if universities were serious aboutentrepreneurship, they would provide capital for small projects, developed by students, thatcould become a sustained business. While capital is important, the main point is to provide moreopportunities for students to gain real experience with, not just theories about

significant.In a previous study, the innovation self-efficacy of undergraduate students enrolled in two juniorand senior level environmental engineering courses was found to increase after studentscompleted an activity on designing K-12 STEM projects related to the course outcomes (See fullinstrument in Bolhari and Tillema, 2022). In a follow-on study, it was of interest to evaluate theimpacts of the addition of mentors into the curriculum design activity. Previous research foundthat various forms of mentoring might increase innovation self-efficacy. In co-curricularactivities with communities via the group Design for America (DFA), student teams receivedbrief weekly coaching sessions with professional designers, and interviews identified these

We will close with both a section on “lessonslearned” throughout this process, as well as a section on the “deliverables” that have emergedfrom this process thus far. These ‘deliverables’ tie to benefits that, we believe, will enhancecareer preparation for students.theories of interdisciplinaritySeveral theories could have supported our work on developing a program in SocialEntrepreneurship. We are aware of the literature suggesting that theories of community-engagement (Tekic et al., 2022; Wallerstein et al. 2020), and even collaborative building () couldhave been used to guide this project.

-focused project. Davis et al. shared two case studiesof incorporating entrepreneurship topics into mechanical engineering automotive courses, andfound that faculty often felt overburdened to cover the technical content and were hesitant to addadditional skills or activities that may take time away from those topics [7]. While there aremultiple methods to integrate EML into classes shared on EngineeringUnleashed.com, onechallenge with existing resources is the duration of the proposed activities. Research by Gillespiefound faculty who commented on the web resources were often favorable of the activityproposed, but were not always able to adopt them into their own courses claiming courses hadtoo many technical topics to cover and too little class

Severalexamples have been successful with the latter, and the KEEN organization can help providefunding to make these changes to the curriculum [25-28]. This methodology is more aligned withresearch by Winberg et al. [12] that calls for the coupling of technical and professional content.It is recommended that engineering program coordinators introduce alternate assessment theoriesinto the engineering curriculum. Examples include a scale based on the Theory of PlannedBehavior [13] to assess student attitudes toward professional skills, including communication,ethical decision-making, cultural adaptability

discovering gaps in EM assessment tools? 3. How might we connect people to EM assessment tools that already exist?BackgroundEngineering faculty have been working to incorporate entrepreneurial mindset in curriculum formany years. Several efforts have been made by prior authors to summarize the existing literatureon assessment of EM. In an effort to find the appropriate tools for assessing entrepreneurialmindset, a systematic literature search resulted in a comprehensive listing of availableinstruments and surveys. Prior work by Grzybowski et al. had provided a preliminary structurecategory [2]. Each individual instrument or survey has multiple items listed including what isbeing assessed, any studies used to determine its

Theoretical courses, hands-on activities, project based learning, teambuilding andleadership opportunities all need to be packed into an accredited curriculum. The challenge for allengineering educators is to provide sufficient and consistent opportunities for engineering studentsto explore new ideas and approaches, act upon those ideas and transform them into value for othersand themselves.
