approach is problem-based or project-basedlearning. In problem-based learning, students are presented with problems to solve and thendiscover the material needed. In contrast, project-based learning is more hands-on with physicalhardware as the motivator for the solution-space search.11 An advantage of project-basedlearning, in our view, is the close connection to real-world constraints including methods ofmanufacture and assembly. We have found that this approach is very engaging to students, andthat when properly conceived, we can achieve both depth and breadth of understanding.12Anecdotally, many potential employers that we speak with show a strong preference for studentsthat have had practical experience in their undergraduate education.

A more in-depth description of the elements of teameffectiveness in each course is included in the results section. One of the outcomes we are working toward through this curriculum initiative is to developengineers with an Entrepreneurial Mindset (EM). Developing EM is not about start-ups or businessstrategies necessarily; rather EM empowers engineering students to recognize and identifyopportunities, focus on their impact, and create value in any context (Bosman & Fernhaber, 2018;Entrepreneurial Mindset | Engineering Unleashed, 2022). EM is comprised of three elements:curiosity, connections, and creating

In the first year of the project, we directly asked students to identifytheir role models and whether they thought of their EOEs as role models. Consistent withprevious research on children’s role models [13], students most often mentioned family membersas role models, followed by celebrities (e.g., athletes, singers), teachers and fellow classmates,with only a handful citing EOEs. Reasons provided by students for choosing these role modelswere split among what role models do as careers or hobbies

After decades of evolution, PBL has grown into an extensive teaching and learningmethod in a wide range of disciplines, including engineering education. Current studies showthat students find PBL more engaging and effective, as they actively apply the informationlearned in the classroom to tackle real-life problems [1].Immersive technologies, including virtual

Following the junior design course, the students have a 20week senior design sequence where they design, build and deliver a prototype for an externalclient. Aside from these core components the students gain additional breadth through courses inmath, chemistry, and computer science.
