In any course,the course content, assessments, and pedagogical practices should be aligned to improve learningand to have valid understanding of the students’ progress. This is more difficult across a wholeprogram with multiple instructors and course offerings, but it becomes almost impossible if theoutcomes are not clearly defined. The multiple definitions of entrepreneurship create many moreopportunities for confusion and misalignment across programs. By articulating the particulartype of entrepreneurship education being offered, administrators can better ensure thatcoursework across the program reflects the desired

In somecases, existing facilities are rebranded, but in other cases, brand new spaces are created.The “origin story” of SCU’s maker lab is that of a new space that grew out of a desire for anenhanced level of accessibility to a broad set of tools of making. SCU’s School of Engineeringhas a well-equipped, maintained and managed suite of standard fabrication/assembly/test labs.These shops have been developed, operated, and maintained by individual departments, withpolicies and use reflecting decades of practice. Traditional shop use typically serves students ina single department once students reach a specific point in their program. While these shopsserve their traditional purpose well, they are not at all

In our sample, the top-down model is best reflected at the PUC case. Here, the Ingeniería 2030 project strengthened analready existing emphasis already in the dean, increasing its importance among the facultymembers and other actors, who did not necessarily share the vision of the entrepreneurialengineer. One strategy was to make them see that this was a public policy matter and not somewhimsical move on the
