Technology Management Program. The centerpiece of this initiative is a comprehensive design of a newentrepreneurship program. The curriculum will rely on engineering and businesscourses. One unique feature of this program is that we propose to engage freshman inthe curriculum. We see this as a benefit to retention of students with both technical andbusiness interests. . In the “capstone” classes, students will be organized in E-teams with varyingeducational backgrounds. The six prior Entrepreneurship courses in concert with thebusiness courses will provide the students with the tools needed to successfully developtheir products. These E-Teams will include Oklahoma inventors that commonly have aproduct concept in mind with little insight

With these considerations in mind,Harvard University introduced an on-campus, week-long intensive hands-on course on design thinking. The coursewon an award from the 2012 Harvard President’s Innovation Fund for Faculty, and was held during winter break.The course was intended to provide a concise and complete exposure to engineering and design, in a way that wouldbe accessible to students with no prior technical background. The course was also developed with the goal ofbroadening the problem-solving approach conventionally used by engineers, through incorporation of techniquesand methods used by designers – a process known as design thinking.

I will use an authentic and exciting project we initiated in 1997 toillustrate how the Design Stem models the engineering stages. The project continues to moveforward today with hopes that we will move into the construction stage fairly soon. My intentwill be to show how the project-based curriculum (the method) creates a learning environmentbased on a solid foundation, the Design Stem, that models the engineering design life cycle.Conceptual DesignDuring the conceptual stage, ideas evolve from the mind of the designer. To communicate theseideas, the engineer relies on graphical skills to portray and develop the design concept. If theteam can sell management

One wayto do so is implementation of the Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM) which cultivates the significanceof curiosity, making connections, and creating value. An EM promotes information gathering,inter-topic connection making, and constant valuation of an engineer’s product or service and theways in which it supports society. While an EM appears business venture-centered at firstglance, its support and application in the engineering classroom has been growing due to itsrelevance to the role engineers play today [8], [9].
