individuals who identify with more than one historically disenfranchisedgroup simultaneously (Crenshaw, 1991, 2015; May, 2015). For example, rather than assume thatthe implications of identifying with a minoritized racial/ethnic group in a particular context willbe similar for both men and women, an intersectional approach starts from the assumption thatindividuals with each combination of gender and racial/ethnic identity will have uniqueexperiences (Essers et al., 2010). Research in entrepreneurship has considered the influence ofintersecting racial/ethnic, gender, social class and religious identities (Romero & Valdez, 2016),with a limited number of studies focusing on academic entrepreneurship specifically (Jackson etal., 2022; Mickey &

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

problems. We believe one way to do this is through thedevelopment of an EM that fosters an appreciation for curiosity, making connections, and creating value.Instilling a mindset in students to think entrepreneurially has been gaining popularity, especially in engineering [3].Faculty and administrators have been supportive of increasing entrepreneurship education in engineering classes [4].It has been commonly thought that entrepreneurial spirit is something that people are born with [5]. However,research has shown that these skills can be developed through education [6]. An EM encourages students to seek newinformation, make connections between topics, and constantly think about how the product or service they arecreating as an engineer is useful

. Social capital (people in their social group that can helpthem become an engineer) provides feelings of acceptance and belief that others desire to see aperson perform well [3]. Students who feel engaged within their major and classes oftendemonstrate a higher sense of belonging than those who do not [5], [6]. Research has also showna strong positive correlation between engineering identity and sense of belonging within anengineering major [1]. Students more often see themselves as an engineer when they feel theybelong. In many cases, there is also an underlying assumption that undergraduate students desirea high sense of academic belonging. A lack of sense of belonging can feed into the absence of astrong engineering identity for some students

EML has gained prominence since a significant recent source offunding in engineering education has been through the Kern Family Foundation’s KEEN EMLprograms [6]. These programs make awards to schools to integrate EML into the curriculum.Both the Federal support of convergence and the private support of EML draw on similar, but notidentical belief systems. Both center on technology as a major driver of solutions to issues facingsociety. Both have a distinctly neoliberal character - convergence, through activities designed toscale innovations beyond the traditional academic sphere into the free market, and EML’s focuson entrepreneurship.

To meet the additional goals of strengthening teamwork andproject management skills, the team-based project was organized into a series of phases andmilestones. During the first phase, students focus on project management and team-building bydeveloping a Team Working Agreement. Phase 2 introduces students to the electrical andmechanical engineering applications of the offshore wind industry, where they apply the EDP tocreate blades for model scale wind turbines. The phase culminates in a class-wide competition tosee which team can produce the most power. In the final phase, civil and environmentalengineering applications are introduced.

CF1 (Integrate Outside Information) directlyaligns with the work students complete in both projects. Specifically, students read journalarticles and used newfound knowledge to inform their project designs in the research-basedproject and use knowledge gained from class and their constraints in the robot design/buildproject to create their final prototypes.

Though onemight hope for this class to make engineering entrepreneurship more desirable to the students, itcan also be viewed as a positive outcome when the course helps students clarify their careergoals in general, even if they choose not to pursue entrepreneurship. There was a decrease inneutral responses for both questions in Figure 3 (27% to 18% and 12% to 4%, respectively),which suggests that this course can help solidify students’ career goals either toward or awayfrom entrepreneurship or engineering
