Enhancing the Entrepreneurial Mindset of Freshman Engineers

“…This belief in the value of engineering entrepreneurship is not limited to the United States and is used to justify teaching business principles and entrepreneurship to engineers all over the world [6][7][8][9] . Competitions, as in the ITP, Innovation-to-Product Competition, 10 , networks of universities emphasizing entrepreneurship training for engineers, as funded by the Kern Family Foundation, 11 , and curriculum changes [12][13][14][15][16][17] have all been created based in part on this deeply held belief. In addition substantial capital investments are regularly made in student engineers or teams of student engineers who demonstrate the ability to be entrepreneurial and innovative as a part of their academic activities.…”

“24 hours of innovation”: A trans-pyrenean challenge initiative

“…The traditional teaching method in University is mainly based in master classes with little participation of the students which may cause a decrease on the motivation and the involvement of the students in their own education. In order to improve the implication of the students in their education process there are alternative educational initiatives with new approaches such as laboratory practices, concept maps [1] [2], team working for real problem solving [3], or opening learning objects [4]. Beside the change in the teaching methodology in the subjects of the university degrees there are other activities that can contribute to the improvement of the motivation of the students, and in their personal capabilities and skills.…”
