Introduction and BackgroundIn 2009 and 2010, the Mechanical, Materials, and Aerospace Department at the Illinois Instituteof Technology held two workshops titled: “Integrating Innovation into Engineering Education.”The workshops were part of the Illinois Coalition for Manufacturing Innovation (ICMI), which issponsored by the Small Business Administration and includes Argonne National Laboratory,Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, and the Chicago Manufacturing Center. The goals of ICMIare to incorporate innovation education into the engineering curricula, to initiate a series ofcollaborative projects with small to medium-sized manufacturers, and to work with researchinstitutions to not only facilitate this effort, but also spread its successes nationally

It is also timefor you to learn how to be a leader and not a follower. Make the best decisions you can and livewith the consequences.” These are process education concepts put in concrete terms that theaverage technology student should be able to relate to.

However, the limitations to this traditional approach are many. For example,this approach does not focus on products, which to a large degree is what manufacturingis about.
