the processes thatshould be used at Olin College for creating the curriculum and to make recommendationsfor how the curriculum design should proceed. The curriculum could be defined2 as the“set of learning experiences undertaken by students during their tenure at Olin College”.These learning experiences encompass both “in-class” and “outside-the-classroom”experiences, both academic and non-academic. The methods for transforming novices(entering students) into experts (graduates) have not yet been determined, nor have thedesired characteristics of the ideal Olin graduate. Nevertheless, we have discussed,debated and organized our thoughts about the desired transformations. In order to createthe curriculum, Invention 2000 is designed to permit

In the current version of this partnershipagreement, the COB offers two of the three core courses in the MEM program and one of thefour courses in the Project Management Specialization. In addition, the initial agreement calledfor the Center for Entrepreneurship within the COB to offer three of the four courses in theEngineering Entrepreneurship Specialization.

appropriate forthe general education of a college or university student. In the past an engineering economicscourse focused primarily on financial mathematics; however, the modern engineering economicscourse centers on financial decision making in addition to financial mathematics. These topicsare applicable, if not mandatory, for students pursuing interests in engineering, law, productdevelopment, public service, entrepreneurship, marketing, business, finance, political science,sociology, government, and ethics. This issue is timely because schools at various levels (e.g.,K-12, community colleges, and universities) are including the concepts of quantitative andfinancial literacy into their required curricula, with some being required by state

GIFTS: MAJOR exposure through engineering innovationsAs a first-year engineering instructor on the first day of class, someone invariably asks whatdiscipline of engineering they should go into. Not knowing the particular background of theseindividuals, it is difficult to give them meaningful advice on the spot. First-year students (andtheir parents) have an expectation that the first-year course will “help” them decide whatdiscipline the student should major in. However, introducing students to various fields ofengineering may not be the main foci of the course, as many first-year programs have evolvedtowards the inclusion of curricular content such as design, entrepreneurship, writing, and/orprogramming. This leaves little

Wurdinger and Allison [2] observed that "while 97% of faculty survey respondentsagree that experiential learning approaches enhance students' development of necessary life skills,there still exist many barriers to fully implementing this teaching pedagogy [2]. Such barriersinclude the time and energy required to develop and integrate experiential learning into thecurriculum. In addition, the commitment to allowing students to have more control over theirlearning and the need to let go of traditional lecture styles in favor of more active teaching methods[2]. Other reasons include "workload, time constraints, and class size" [4]. Generally, educatorsembrace the benefits of experiential learning.Perusso et al. [5] identify other

All MPP education programs feature follow an innovativecurricular design without precedence in Portugal, drawing largely from MIT practice in terms ofcurricular structure, course contents, and teaching/learning methods. For example, all educationtracks include mandatory components in the economic and business aspects of engineering, aswell as training in meta-disciplinary skill sets such as innovation, entrepreneurship, management,and leadership. MPP courses are taught in English (even by Portuguese faculty in front of anentirely Portuguese class) and are often co-taught by
