Everyenterprise, whatever size, was once a startup; insights into entrepreneurship thus help employeesunderstand the enterprise they work in. A key method to integrating entrepreneurship inengineering curricula is through experiential learning, such as in capstone project courses, whichprovide project-based learning.
