Similarly, capstone experiences can be tailored to bothallow synthesis of learning across the four years as well as providing professional skills(i.e., resumes, interviewing, financial planning skills, etc.) that will help them succeedpost-graduation.

The instrumentuses a novel construction that employs the factorial survey technique 14 to empirically measure 1how students situate their decision making, rather than simply exploring their cognition withoutattention to context or within a single, typically entrepreneurial, situation, about which results aregeneralized.. This paper details the instrument’s intended use, a pilot study of the instruments’structure, sensitivity, and

types of educational interactions and processes we believe are mostappropriate to achieving those outcomes within an overall reference framework. The educationof engineering graduates occurs through a series of experiences ranging from attending classes,working in laboratories, participating in co-curricular activities, being part of industry-sourcedpre-professional or professional experiences, to experiencing residence life on campus. It isproposed that the Innovation Competencies are best taught to and learned (by students andpracticing professionals) through a new and rebalanced combination of the teaching of contentand an expanded and defined set of experiences.A model-based systems engineering framework has been developed to explore the

Students may volunteer on a project as a trial, join in the context of a researchfellowship, or receive compensation for their efforts in the form of monetary payment, as aresearch assistant, or academic credit. They may also work on projects that have been adapted tosenior design engineering projects. Importantly, the Lab aims to meet the needs of the studentsand support their educational goals above the work product.

These factors showed relatively low correlations with students’entrepreneurial intent. Future studies ought to look into additional contextual factors andinvestigate how these factors may not only correlate with students’ entrepreneurial intent but

robustwith certificates, minors, and undergraduate and graduate degree programs [1]. These are stilllargely classroom based, incorporating lectures, guest speakers, case studies, and groupdiscussion [31,32]. The curricular programs expose students to a wide range of subjects anentrepreneur may need, mainly focused around business education, so they may develop as abusiness generalist [1,33,34]. Many other places outside of business schools are offeringentrepreneurship education, most prevalently in the engineering schools [1].Educating the entrepreneur to be a generalist probably comes from the notion that entrepreneursneed to be able to cut across several disciplines to mobilize resources toward an end goal [6]. Italso may be based off of models

Thissurvey also revealed that respondents who considered themselves good communicators alsobelieved that “their skills differentiate them from the pack,” while those respondents who are notcomfortable with public speaking (including speaking during meetings) believe “they areconsidered less competent technically.” [1] In 2003, Ford and Riley presented a summary ofother studies that “suggest that oral and written communication skills are one of the primaryfactors required of new graduates ultimately affecting their success in the workplace.” [2]However, engineering students often perceive that the writing instruction they experienced inhigh school, or in English or Composition courses at the University level, is not applicable
