Specifically, curriculum changes were implementedinto a course on programming industrial robots (as part of the minor in robotics). This course isdesigned for teaching technology students how to install, maintain, and work with industrialrobots through real-world applications.

entrepreneurship becomes increasingly important for creating jobs and wealthand for gaining a competitive advantage on a national level, both engineering students andinnovative employers are demanding more exposure to and training in innovation andentrepreneurship. Universities must respond to these growing demands in creative ways, but thereis currently a lack of standardization in the design and delivery of entrepreneurship educationprograms, making it difficult for educators and public funders to compare programs acrossinstitutions. Furthermore, each school has a unique institutional culture and entrepreneurialambition that may shape its definition of entrepreneurship education and its approach to programdesign. Some programs may focus on design

Bringing Entrepreneurial Mindset to the Design of Machinery Through a Bio-Inspired Project with Aesthetic ObjectivesAbstractEngineering students often lack sufficient opportunity to work on so-calledwicked and real-world problems in their core technical engineering courses. One of thenationally recognized initiatives to overcome this challenge is the integration of theentrepreneurial mindset (EM) in various instructional activities of engineering programs. Yet,there are limited studies in the literature related to the effectiveness of the EM as a framework ofcurriculum design in the context of machine design and dynamics of machinery. This paperpresents the development and implementation of a course project in a junior level

FrameworkSchilling [5] states that innovation programs aimed at economic growth have a strong relationshipwith activities promoting economic growth. The core practices of these institutions emphasizeleadership and management programs that support global innovation programs. Although manyinitiatives exist to encourage creativity and entrepreneurship among undergraduate students, notall of them may be successful or long-lasting. The goal of sustainable innovation programs is toensure their long-term viability. Research group [4] note that many programs are not designed tomeet the unique needs and interests of the students they serve, which is a major factor in theirsuccess. For instance, students interested in social entrepreneurship, or the arts may not be

While these courses providestudents with an opportunity to learn and practice workplace skills, the approach only ensuresthat some students get practice with every aspect of the design process. In most collaborativeprojects, tasks are delegated to individuals in the groups, which allows them to only practicesome aspects of the design process. Additionally, the capstone course approach does not exposestudents to other engineering disciplines, nor do they focus on promoting creativity

ventures where the entrepreneur takes on risk, comes up with abusiness plan, and attempts to meet a gap in an industry. Start-ups tend to be created with theplan for them to grow very quickly, solve a problem with an innovative solution, and meet theneeds of a wide market [5]. The initial group of people that create a start-up are called a productteam. A product team at a start-up, made up of around three to fifteen people, tends to be madeup of at least a product manager, a product designer, and a few engineers [5]. This group isneeded to begin a start-up, figure out the design of the product, build the product, test theproduct, improve the product, and work to understand if the product is meeting customer needs.Jing [5] points out that, though
