of their social and economic impact [3].One way to achieve this end is by teaching students to harbor an Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM).This may be accomplished in a range of ways, and one such way is via collaboration with theKern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) [4]. KEEN defines EM to be a collection ofmental habits and attitudes that inform one’s approach to problem solving and value creation forsociety [4]. Teaching students to harbor EM is done via Entrepreneurial Minded Learning (EML)and the 3Cs: Curiosity, Connections, and Creating Value [4]. Teaching assessment can provide structure for instruction and support of student learningin the classroom [5]. These assessments have shown student improvement with

, loneliness, and isolation4-7 . To aid in producing scientists and engineers to fulfill STEM jobs, it is important tounderstand how the experiences of college students, particularly racial minority students, maydivert them from persisting in STEM fields. For many racial minority students, the transition into college can be challenging, fraughtwith many issues ranging from social and academic isolation, encountering negative attitudesand behaviors, and fears of fulfilling stereotypes 8,9. The consequences of these issues are grave:social and academic isolation and lack of support in particular, can detrimentally impact minoritystudents’ academic performances 10,11. Mentoring has been viewed as an effective deterrent tocombat the isolation

engineering students communicate better,become more ethical, and see the task of engineering in a larger cultural context. This is as itshould be, but is it possible that the field of design engineering might lend insight and wisdomback to the humanities? If engineering design principles are so helpful in unraveling themysteries of biology, might they also be useful in the social sciences? These are just some of thequestions being posed in an engineering elective course at Oral Roberts University (ORU),where undergraduate students wrestle with advanced concepts in reverse engineering. A recentarticle in ASEE Prism1 touts the benefits of having engineering students engage in the dissection

This is being done at the risk ofencroaching on the time available for the students to engage in the design-build-test process thatembodies the “capstone” nature of the course. Risk analysis, however, is viewed as a valuabletool that can save time if things go wrong.The main components of risk analysis are identification, analysis, and mitigation. Students areasked to identify several risk items that are critical to achieving MOP thresholds or baselinesbased on uncertainty (lack of technical knowledge, parts availability, scheduling pressures, etc.).for each item, they are to ask “What is the likelihood the situation or circumstance will happen?”and assign a probability value

The amount of authority thatyou hold as an interim is likely ill-defined, but as an internal insider, your influence is hopefullyhigh. It is also important to realize that many that you hope to lead will see you as onlytemporary and may be willing to wait out the transition period without fully engaging. This islikely not personal but rather a professional consideration of the role in which you are serving.
