The content of the three e- mails varied slightly, highlighting various values for the respondent each time: the opportunity to give something back to their alma mater and prospective students by further improving the curriculum; the chance to reflect on their own educational and career goals; and an opportunity to win a prize. • The initial drafts took 20

Innovative behavior outcomes areanalyzed considering socio-demographic characteristics such as gender and underrepresentedracial/ethnic minority (URM) status, and characteristics of the workplace such as industryand company size. Furthermore, we elaborate on the interrelation of innovative behavior andleadership responsibility.We find no significant differences in innovative behavior of female and male engineeringgraduates

Feweryoung people enroll in engineering programs than in the past, and many who do either drop outof such programs at a high rate or become dissatisfied with their career options and seekemployment in other professions after graduating.8 The 2002 report, Engage to Excel, indicatesthat increasing retention is the most efficient way to boost STEM graduates, and identifies keychanges engineering faculty members can make to their curriculum and teaching to fosterretention. Key is the need for intellectual and personal engagement, something often stifled byuninspiring courses and unwelcoming faculty.7 Retention also

defined EM as decisiveness (cognitive),accountability and resilience (behavioral), and finally humility and confidence (emotional) [14].In a similar way, students and faculty tend to define EM based upon one’s personality, which cango hand in hand with entrepreneurs' behavioral definition of EM. Faculty seem to define EM assomeone with a desire to grow (drive) as well as someone who understands the risks of everysituation [13]. In Laalo and Heinonen, students discussed how an EM involves someone who issupportive, courageous, social focused, and caring [28]. The commonality between faculty andbusiness students is that they both highlight the importance of social skills in an EM and give thesocial aspect of an EM as being one of its defining

Considering the significant financial and time investments involved in the creation ofentrepreneurship programs, institutional funding competitions, and accelerator programs, it isnotable that there are no in-depth, qualitative studies that explore the entrepreneurshipexperiences students have because of these programs. In general, there is very little research onthe personal impacts of these experiences including how they can affect an engineering student’sattitudes, behaviors, career goals, or personal competence (Duval-Coetil, Reed-Rhoads, &Haghighi, 2011).

Over the last few years, ourstudents have also explored recycled plastics, structural insulated panels (SIPs), insulatingconcrete forms (ICFs), and autoclaved aerated concrete.
