on real research and design projects. Most Junior/Senior Engineering clinics are sponsored by companies, or federal or state government agencies. As a secondary objective, the Engineering Clinic supports entrepreneurship in engineering students. The College of Engineering has a long-standing program that allows students to apply for funding to pursue their own entrepreneurial ideas through the Junior/Senior Engineering Clinics. However, the program has been utilized by very few students. Recently, two new assignments- an entrepreneurial design project and a white paper- have been added to the Sophomore Engineering Clinic sequence. This paper describes

questionnaire 38. The EAO has been used in a number of other dissertations 35, 39 & 40 and research 41-46articles . The limitation of the EAO model is that it does not include risk perception andopportunity recognition, two other well recognized characteristics of entrepreneurs. Theadvantage is that it is a validated instrument with sound theoretical underpinning and that it takesa multi-factor approach with four subscales.Method Our inquiry seeks to determine whether the students become more entrepreneurial aftertaking these classes. We selected the EAO instrument 38 as our quantitative tool for severalreasons. It was developed to predict entrepreneurship, which fits with our research question. Itwas tested on students

The final class was a senior design capstone class(n=14) populated with mechanical engineering students. In a first round of data collection (n=44) students in four of these classes were asked tocomplete a 33 question survey. Participation was voluntary, and we explained the importance ofthis study as the university added course work in entrepreneurship. Questions include the 22items identified by Chen in their ESE construct, five items to measure “intention to start abusiness” (ITSB) and six items for demographics.

Entrepreneurshipwas a prerequisite to the Engineering Service Learning course, required of first semester juniors.In the original curriculum design, students in Engineering Entrepreneurship were tasked withproviding an entrepreneurial solution for a predetermined client. The course instructors weretakes with identifying an acceptable community partner for the class. The project was thencarried into Engineering Service Learning in the following academic year. Engineering Servicelearning was designed to assist the students with the design, testing and implementation stages ofthe engineering design process.BackgroundThe FGCU mission statement includes statements regarding “valuing public service”,“encouraging civic responsibility” and a requirement of community

This course isalso complemented by GE 199, a required zero-credit seminar course that meets once a week andfeatures a series of guest speakers to help the students understand the field of engineering.It was decided that one of the existing modules in this course (Communication System Design)should be replaced by a module on entrepreneurship. Introducing the concept this early in thecurriculum and across all engineering disciplines provided a unique opportunity to encourage allengineering students to begin to think about entrepreneurship from the beginning of theirengineering careers
