The main goal of theworkshop is to promote student engagement in “the three Cs: Curiosity, Connections, andCreating Value” [3]. Kern Engineering Entrepreneurship Network (KEEN) published theframework at their website as shown in figure 1. The entrepreneurial mindset plus engineeringskillset has been used to develop educational outcomes for several engineering courses.Following the experience from the ICE workshop, the authors began to embed their proposedEML modules in several courses for strategic planning purposes starting in September 2017 forthe fall 2017 quarter.

Even alean startup will likely need some funds to travel for customer discovery work, attendconferences, host a website, and pay fees associated with registering a company. Here are somethings to look for in and around your campus.Funding your ventureThe first type of funding is non-dilutive grant funding, a.k.a. free money. Pitch competitions andbusiness plan competitions are common and can serve as an early source of funding. On-campusprograms like NSF I-Corps Sites offer a small amount of money ($3,000 as of now) to get startedwith customer discovery work that can lead to a

It is unclear exactly whatenables the second semester classes to have higher averages than the first semester courses, sinceall three courses have different subject matter, different styles of projects and different sets ofinstructors. But an upward trend of better teamwork satisfaction is hopeful. Moving forwardwe want to try to isolate a few of the sections of ED1 and ED2 and let students choose teamswith no restrictions and compare to the other sections. A pilot study in Fall 2019 to Spring 2020has been planned.

This analysisidentified a group of students (66% of our sample) who have currently identified a career ofinterest other than engineering yet are open to an engineering career. We wish to keepengineering as a career as a possible future for these students. This work suggests that it may befruitful for engineering educators to identify ways in which engineering activities intersect withstudents’ interests, thereby helping engineering study and careers to resonate with these students. 3.

AtIRE and YCP class sizes are between 8-12 and 15-18 students, respectively. However, it is notused as a regular classroom activity and only occurs one to two times a semester due to theamount of planning and setup required.Finally, the instructor decides if this is to be an individual or group activity. For an individualactivity, there should be a variety of questions both in the content area and depth so students whoare stuck on one question can move onto another and use their time wisely.

Ref. [7] introduces manyforms of inductive learning and teaching methods such as inquiry-based learning, discoverylearning, problem-based learning, project-based learning, hybrid (problem/project-based)methods, case-based teaching, and just-in-time teaching. The challenge of implementing thesemethods are (1) logistical problem, (2) the requirement of more planning from instructors’ end,and (3) the stimulation of student resistance and interpersonal conflict (Ref.

During this time, students, with the guidance of an advisor, must decidehow to balance the demands of the rigorous engineering course work with the progress towarddegree. For example, is putting a first-year student in calculus, physics, chemistry, compositionand an elective (as the eight-semester degree plan expects) setting some students up for failure?Is it better to delay a science course to allow time to adjust to the dynamics of
