Shaffer is also currentl ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Applications of Teams and Stories: Augmenting the Development of Entrepreneurial Mindset in EngineersAbstract Calls from the American Society of Civil Engineers and the National Academy ofEngineering, and a similar but more recent statement from the National Association of Collegesand Employers all assert the need for engineers that are not only competent with a certain set ofknowledge and skills, but also have a mindset for creating value. In order to accomplish this,engineering content needs to not only engage the students

Given multi-faceted disaster impacts on society, it is alsobecoming more critical to consider and balance varying impacts among multiple stakeholders. Toprepare future civil engineers to fulfill a risk manager role, the civil engineering curriculumshould expand to also address these elements. These skill sets are also directly related tofostering the 3C’s of the KEEN Network’s Entrepreneurial Mindset for creating value,connections, and curiosity to promote entrepreneurial mindset learning [1]. This development isfurther supported by the ABET engineering education criteria expansion, specifically for

The initiative aims toenhance the sense of belonging of the students to the profession, school, and major, as well as tograduate more holistic engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset. Subsequently garneringexternal funding, the initiative applies interactive learning and entrepreneurially minded learning(EML) pedagogies - such as problem-based learning (PBL), team development, story-drivenlearning (SDL), and, value sensitive design (VSD) as well as computational skills development -to engage students early and keep them engaged throughout their undergraduate journey. Thispaper discusses effective practices, challenges and lessons learned along the way with

solving design projects.The gaps between perceived and real-world applications can be closed with these projects, andthe process of working through these projects is as important as the final product [12, 13].Learning to produce a solution to a realistic problem is not easy and demands that students lookbeyond what they learn in the classroom [14, 11]. Many different design challenges have led todocumented increases in technical and problem solving skills and can be used to foster animproved innovation mindset [15]. Participating in student competition design projects has alsoresulted in long-term retention of subject matter [12].Many engineering curricula primarily focus on the attainment of technical knowledge and therelevant technical skills
