&lt;div&gt;== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The University of Saint Thomas is has three campuses: Minneapolis, MN, St. Paul, MN and Rome, Italy. The University of Saint Thomas is known for their engineering and business (including entrepreneurship) programs. Although the university is not considered a research university, many students are involved in research alongside St. Thomas faculty and innovation-based classes.&amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Student Entrepreneurship ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size:smaller;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Students at the University of St Thomas have many opportunities to use their creativity to spark innovation and become student entrepreneurs. Departments like the Schulze School of Entrepreneurship and the School of Engineering use their resources to teach and bring in outside entities to inspire students to be successful entrepreneurs. There are many courses that cover the theory of innovation and the design process. Hands-on and interactive courses are staples of the business and engineering schools. Students are prepared to implement what they have learned into their senior capstone course - where each team must research, design and create a product for/with an outside company. Students can also explore entrepreneurship beyond the classroom. For example, students can enter the Fowler Business Challenge and participate in the student club Design for America. New this year, the TJ Bot Internet of Things Make-a-thon Event brings together entrepreneurs and engineers to design a cardboard robot with the mind of IBM's Watson. The Engineering Reverse Job Fair brings companies to the students, many of whom leave with internships for the following summer. The St. Thomas community nurtures students’ ability to think creatively and collaborate with each other.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;docs-internal-guid-27332366-b8b6-86b2-c925-81af6057bb5f&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 14.6667px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Saint Thomas is active in their research, although we are not a “research-focused institution.” This goes not only for students, but faculty as well. For example, Dr. Thomas, an engineering and entrepreneurship professor, is known for her unique research prompts - squishy circuits, food technology, and circus are just a few. She speaks to the fact that she is rarely told “no” for any of her ideas, and instead, is assisted by leaders in the University in dreaming up ways for her to accomplish her ideas. Although her ideas are not typical research topics, she is always allowed to create new projects and programs, not matter how seemingly “out there” they are. At St. Thomas, the faculty is encouraged to pursue their ideas, because the more opportunities to explore concepts translates to more opportunities for students to learn and grow underneath them, which is one of St. Thomas’s main goals of education.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== University Technology Transfer Function ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The University of Saint Thomas does not have an official Technology Transfer Function but all research projects are handled through the Grants and Research Office found [https://www.stthomas.edu/gro/ here].&amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== University - Industry Collaboration ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;docs-internal-guid-27332366-b8ab-b52a-5e14-82c676ec72dc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 14.6667px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;The University of St Thomas collaborates with companies in the Twin Cities through classes and clubs. The Engineering Design Clinic (ENGR 480/481) is the capstone class for engineering majors where each group collaborates with a company to work on a real world problem specific to each company. Another program offered at St Thomas is the internship co-op program where a student works as an intern for a company that collaborates with St Thomas part-time in the fall and full-time in the winter; upon completion of this program, the student will write a paper and present their experience and receive four elective credits. Many of the clubs at St. Thomas also host speaker events with professionals related to the industries that collaborate with St. Thomas.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Regional and Local Economic Development ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;docs-internal-guid-27332366-b8ac-2b78-180d-7ccd5bb9e585&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 14.6667px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;The University is dedicated in engaging with regional and local economic development efforts. They have a dedicated office, the office of community engagement, focusing on course-based community engagement that responds to the region’s most pressing needs. The office of community engagement partners with over 100 global, national, and local organizations and the Philips Scholar Program as well as the Clinton Global Initiative, which are student competitions for global and community engagement, run out of that office. Course-based engagement is a key way St. Thomas demonstrates its mission statement, “all for the common good”.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Courtney is a senior at the University of St. Thomas. She is double majoring in Environmental Science and Psychology and minoring in Sustainability. Courtney is passionate about using innovation to solve environmental issues, specifically implementing a more sustainable global food system. She is involved in cutting-edge urban agriculture research and spent the summer studying if a waste product from coffee roasting, coffee chaff, can be used as a [[File:PelisseroCourtneySScopy.jpg|thumb]]soil amendment or mulch in small-scale agriculture. The goal was to innovate the local food system by taking a waste product from a local business and recycling this product to increase local food production. Courtney is also involved in BrightSide Produce, which is the nation's only financially sustainable business plan for supplying fresh and affordable produce in food desert areas. Being a part of BrightSide is what sparked Courtney's interest in innovation and entrepreneurship. In the future, Courtney plans on attending graduate school and pursuing a career in academia. In her free time, she enjoys listening to vinyl and drinking lots of coffee.&lt;br /&gt;

The Engineering Reverse Job Fair brings companies to the students, many of whom leave with internships for the following summer.

For example, Dr. Thomas, an engineering and entrepreneurship professor, is known for her unique research prompts - squishy circuits, food technology, and circus are just a few. She speaks to the fact that she is rarely told “no” for any of her ideas, and instead, is assisted by leaders in the University in dreaming up ways for her to accomplish her ideas. Although her ideas are not typical research topics, she is always allowed to create new projects and programs, not matter how seemingly “out there” they are. At St. Thomas, the faculty is encouraged to pursue their ideas, because the more opportunities to explore concepts translates to more opportunities for students to learn and grow underneath them, which is one of St. Thomas’s main goals of education.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The University of Saint Thomas is has three campuses: Minneapolis, MN, St. Paul, MN and Rome, Italy. The University of Saint Thomas is known for their engineering and business (including entrepreneurship) programs. Although the university is not considered a research university, many students are involved in research alongside St. Thomas faculty and innovation-based classes.&amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size:smaller;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Students at the University of St Thomas have many opportunities to use their creativity to spark innovation and become student entrepreneurs. Departments like the Schulze School of Entrepreneurship and the School of Engineering use their resources to teach and bring in outside entities to inspire students to be successful entrepreneurs. There are many courses that cover the theory of innovation and the design process. Hands-on and interactive courses are staples of the business and engineering schools. Students are prepared to implement what they have learned into their senior capstone course - where each team must research, design and create a product for/with an outside company. Students can also explore entrepreneurship beyond the classroom. For example, students can enter the Fowler Business Challenge and participate in the student club Design for America. New this year, the TJ Bot Internet of Things Make-a-thon Event brings together entrepreneurs and engineers to design a cardboard robot with the mind of IBM's Watson.

&lt;div&gt;Courtney is a senior at the University of St. Thomas. She is double majoring in Environmental Science and Psychology and minoring in Sustainability. Courtney is passionate about using innovation to solve environmental issues, specifically implementing a more sustainable global food system. She is involved in cutting-edge urban agriculture research and spent the summer studying if a waste product from coffee roasting, coffee chaff, can be used as a [[File:PelisseroCourtneySScopy.jpg|thumb]]soil amendment or mulch in small-scale agriculture. The goal was to innovate the local food system by taking a waste product from a local business and recycling this product to increase local food production. Courtney is also involved in BrightSide Produce, which is the nation's only financially sustainable business plan for supplying fresh and affordable produce in food desert areas. Being a part of BrightSide is what sparked Courtney's interest in innovation and entrepreneurship. In the future, Courtney plans on attending graduate school and pursuing a career in academia. In her free time, she enjoys listening to vinyl and drinking lots of coffee.&lt;br /&gt;
