a mass online education specificallyfor students and faculty from Tier 2 and Tier 3 colleges. MOOCs (Massive Open Online Course )are online courses which enable large numbers to participate via the web or other technologies.MOOCs have a long history and have primarily been asynchronous so that international studentscan also avail of this. In this article, we delineate how we modified that approach by piloting thissynchronously. The Covid19 situation was an added incentive to offer this course to students whocould not meet in person due to restrictions for in-person classes. Over 350 students from 20different engineering colleges from India were recruited for a pilot program along with the facultyfrom their schools. Each college recruited

Thisprovides a tested syllabus with proven deliverables and existing pedagogy. From a technologyperspective, preference is given to technologies that are already familiar to students and faculty.A dynamic offering of video-based lecture content inclusive of course slides is the basis of theonline course.Learning objectives and achievements for the online course match those of the correspondingface-to-face course.

It should be noted that the PAC was initially created for acourse focused on medical devices, a field with one of the highest financial and regulatory barri-ers to entry.

as an elective, reaching arelatively small audience. Recently, authors increasingly argue that teaching an entrepreneurialmindset requires an integrated approach.2,3,4Kettering University has adopted this approach by trying to incorporate entrepreneurial ideasdirectly into existing classes. This can be difficult to accomplish for several reasons. First,engineering professors find it difficult to make room in the course syllabus for an entrepreneurial Page 22.845.2education. Further, many faculty have not been exposed to the “entrepreneurial mindset” andthus do not feel prepared to broach the subject in class. Kettering University has

From these resources, the team identified a set of topics andorganized them into a three-tiered structure: core, extended, and optional. The core topics, thosethat the team considered important for most entrepreneurship courses, were further sorted intofour main groupings: general introduction and skills, stage one (product ideas and conceptdevelopment), stage two (business evaluation, planning, and pre-production), and stage three (thebusiness plan).During and following the summer meeting, the core competency

This process has been implemented within amixed online/in-person multi-university course comprised of both undergraduate and graduatelevel students who are predominantly, but not exclusively, pursuing engineering degrees. OurInnovation Based Learning (IBL) course seeks to provide students with maximum freedom andresponsibility for their own learning; we seek to radically rethink and reduce the organizationaltasks normally performed by the instructor. Re-assigning these tasks to the students creates newopportunities to learn soft skills such as

have documented: elective face-to-face courses [3],[4], online courses [5], course concentrations [6], [7], capstone experiences [8], [9], and project-based courses embedded in the engineering curriculum [2], [10]–[12]. Most studies on entrepreneurship education have analyzed psychological outcomes, such asself-efficacy and entrepreneurial intent [13]. Few of them have explored short and long-termeffects on professional competencies and career goals [14]. Some of them have used classroomassessment techniques and academic records to understand students’ conceptions ofentrepreneurial learning [15], [16], but more efforts are needed to explore how students learn aboutentrepreneurship as they develop ownership of their ideas [17].
