. Attributes of an engineer with anentrepreneurial mindset include a base of technical fundamentals, business acumen, and customerawareness, all of which attempt to support societal values. In KEEN-related literature theseattributes are often shown geometrically in the form of a now iconic tetrahedron with societalvalues representing the top vertex and the other 3 residing on the base triangle. More recently,curiosity, connections, and creating value (the 3 “Cs”) have been used to describe theentrepreneurial mindset (e.g. Erdil [3]).Different institutions have employed different approaches to infusing engineering curricula andcourses with entrepreneurship content, including a systemic approach, focusing on freshmanIntroduction to Engineering courses

Students may accept a summer-only assignment or they may extend theirtime-to-degree by working on a co-op assignment during the academic year.The HTOL course was designed to resolve the problem that few students in the Department ofChemical Engineering participated in the engineering co-op program because it hinderedprogress through the department’s curriculum.

Operational Technologies (OT) domains add to thesurface of attacks to the existing vulnerable Information Technology (IT) systems domain. Theseattacks include a number of diverse threats such as Distributed Denial-of-Service, ransomware,Advanced Persistent Threats and others. All these threats affect the operations of the IT/OT/IoTsystems and cost globally $148 million in 2018 [1, 2].Cybersecurity is interdisciplinary by nature. The survey in [3] shows that cybersecurity science isnot only related to computer and engineering science, but to many different sciences such asinformation science, business and management, psychology, criminal justice, and forensic science.We recommend in this work that a cybersecurity program should be interdisciplinary to

Results and ConclusionsAs noted in the paper abstract, we did not achieve our primary objective of building a truly pro-duction-quality product. The specific reasons for our lack of success are the following: 1. The scope the project was overly ambitious, even given the substantial preparatory work that had come before. 2. The project became a fully ground-up effort, rather than being an upgrade or incremental addition to an existing system.

The Equation Activity we discuss here is the outgrowth of this desire.Previous attempts at this type of activity involved either of two common assessment methods.The program could be pre-coded with as many possible correct answers as the developers couldanticipate, and the students’ answer was checked against this list for a match. Otherwise thestudents’ equation and the correct equation could each be numerically evaluated, and thosevalues compared to within certain set tolerances.
