  1. Dr. Kenneth J. Reid, Director of Engineering Education Ohio Northern University Addressing Entrepreneurial Mindset Learning Outcomes in the First Year

  2. First Year Engineering Sequence • Teaming • Criteria & Constraints • Intro to Engineering 1 (ENGR1041) • Small projects • Tech communication • Design process • Intro to Engineering 2 (ENGR1051) • Cornerstone design project • Given a country, design a device to help alleviate some effect of poverty

  3. Entrepreneurial Mindset A student should be able to: • Effectively collaborate in a team setting • Apply critical & creative thinking to ambiguous problems • Construct & effectively communicate a customer-appropriate value proposition • Persist through and learn from failure. • Effectively manage projects through appropriate commercialization or final delivery process. • Demonstrate voluntary social responsibility. • Relate personal liberties and free enterprise to entrepreneurship.

  4. Effectively collaborate in a team setting • Teams are formed “randomly” in Intro to Engr 1 • Effective teaming covered in Intro to Engr 1 • Teams formed using CATME in Engr (www.catme.org)

  5. Apply critical & creative thinking to ambiguous problems • Construct & effectively communicate a customer-appropriate value proposition • Effectively manage projects through appropriate commercialization or final delivery process. • Engineering Design process applied to multiple designs • Poverty Alleviating cornerstone project http://rube.asq.org/edu/2012/03/continuous-improvement/qed-news-spring-2012.pdf
