to prepare students today for the future.On the other hand, Industry representatives shared their experiences and recommendations oneducating engineers for the 21st century during the National Academy of Engineering annualmeeting in [8]. While acknowledging that engineering schools already produce technicallycompetent graduates, they need engineers who are: creative, can work in teams, and cancommunicate and share their thoughts and ideas. They emphasized that engineering schoolsshould involve students in projects from day one and not rely on capstone design to practiceproblem-solving and learn about partnerships, relationships, and exchanging ideas. To help meetthis challenge, Jarrar and Anis suggested that integrating entrepreneurial

Introduction to Engineering and the other one isSenior Capstone Design. Introduction to Engineering usually provides engineering students with a betterunderstanding of engineering disciplines through hands on experience and can engage students. SeniorCapstone Design courses offer rich opportunities for engineering students to work in teams or individuallyon industrial and real-world projects [2][3]. However, Introduction to Engineering is usually offered at thebeginning of freshman year, and Senior Capstone Design is usually offered during a student’s senior year.As a result, there are commonly limited design opportunities for engineering students in between.Second, many universities are emphasizing experiential learning and encourage engineering

Substantial interaction between mechanical engineering andentrepreneurship students in a senior level capstone course resulted in noteworthy improvementsin final project quality [3].When entrepreneurship is present, as it is in this study, a recent literature review identified a needfor more studies that measure its educational impacts [4]. This is not a new conclusion.Immersion in a process, such as the one conducted in this study, or even a simulation allowschildren to learn extensive amounts of information in short periods of time [5].

Typically, the first and senior years of a student's engineering educationjourney are infused with hands-on projects and capstone courses. However, the sophomore andjunior years generally need more opportunities for active learning, gaining professional skills,and developing a sense of professional practice. Also, scholars have increasingly realized thatarts subjects help students understand connections between different disciplines from acomprehensive perspective.This study highlights findings from

Groups likeKEEN have been supporting and encouraging EML in engineering education, with thepublication of the “The KEEN Framework” that includes examples of student outcomesassociated with entrepreneurial mindset [6]. Most often, these EML outcomes are incorporatedinto first year and capstone courses that emphasize the engineering design process. Courses, suchas statics, dynamics, and thermodynamics, make less frequent use of EML, possibly becauseinstructors feel like they do not have enough class time to include these elements. The aim of the“Clippers Worth the Cost” activity is to incorporate EML with course content in such a way thatstudents’ experience with the content is more
