= Strategy #1: Implementation =

== Innovation & Entrepreneurship Living Learning Community (IE-LLC)  ==

The Living Learning Communities are the epitome of experiential education and can serve as a catalyst for I&E implementation efforts.  The Innovation & Entrepreneurship LLC (IE-LLC) will help students in all majors and disciplines who want to extend collaboration outside of the classroom and into a residential setting. Specifically, the IE-LLC will develop and strengthen innovation and entrepreneurship skills throughout the course of the academic year for students. Additionally, it will provide incentive and enhancement for upperclassmen residential life. The University of New Haven serves as a leader in experiential education.  

== Entrepreneurial Engineering Living Learning Community (E2-LLC) ==

Efforts are continuing to develop and maintain the Entrepreneurial Engineering Living Learning Community. The E2-LLC offers a variety of enriching activities, including monthly discussion dinners, 24 Hour Imagination Quests, and weekly meetings with the E2-LLC student coordinator. The E2-LLC provides its’ members the opportunity to pursue feasible projects outside of their academic work. The E2- LLC also provides its members the chance to participate in a threshold level of activities over their four years in order to earn a certificate. The Entrepreneurial Thinkers Certificate will give students an edge in today's competitive job marketplace. E2- LLC does not require separate housing or fees, but it does require membership in the Engineering LLC. Think of it as a supplement to the Engineering LLC. University of New Haven is proudly a member of KEEN, a collaboration of universities that strive to instill an entrepreneurial mindset in undergraduate engineering and technology students. KEEN’s mission is to graduate engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset so they can create personal, economic, and societal value through a lifetime of meaningful work. Graduates of KEEN schools will be prepared to identify new technology-based business opportunities in their engineering disciplines. This network of colleges creates synergy between member institutions that takes advantage of the network’s collective faculty in a manner that transcends an individual university’s status.  

== EMpwr  ==

EMpwr (Entrepreneurial Mindset Power) is a new recognized student organization that promotes I&E and involves all majors. The five pillars of EMpwr are:

#Leadership: Identify and pursue opportunities to develop the mindset, skillset, and world view related to being entrepreneurial. 
#Service: Address the local needs and apply the mindset to serve the community. 
#Outreach: Influence the future leaders, inspire innovators, and participate in enterprise. 
#Mentorship: Create meaningful peer to peer and professional relationships critical for networking and development of the individual mindset. 
#Competition: Innovate ideas and create novel solutions to real-world problems… Front-end of design with emphasis on the mindset.

= Strategy #2: Awareness =

== Innovation & Entrepreneurship Newsletter ==

Currently, there is no newsletter dedicated to I&E related news. There should be a newsletter, by print, email, or both, that places focus on the developing the entrepreneurial mindset and reporting recent innovations. For example, most individuals are aware about the popular product, the Sperry Boat Shoe. However, the majority are unaware of its origins. Inventor and sailor Paul Sperry slipped on a boat and fell overboard. The traumatic experience inspired him to develop a non-slip shoe. He observed his cocker spaniel's superior traction capabilties as it ran down an icy hill without slipping thanks to the grooves within its paws. The patented technology has evolved into a multi-billion dollar product and navy item still used today. Similar stories should be shared to inspire future innovators and to promote thinking above and beyond. 

== Entrepreneurship Hour  ==

The University of New Haven has its own radio station that broadcasts various musics and shows. Often, it encourages colleges and clubs to advertise events or facilitate hour-long discussions. There should be an hour dedicated to a conversation that promotes I&E and makes students and faculty aware of I&E events on campus. A possible candidate to host the show could be the newly initiated club EMpwr (Entrepreneurial Mindset Power).

= Strategy #3: Promotion =

== Discussion Dinners   ==

The E2-LLC has piloted a series of discussion dinners that have proven successful in the past year and a half. Starting at 6:30 PM, students of all majors (mostly engineering) gather for a meal, socialize, and then participate in an interactive discussion centered around innovation and entrepreneurship. Focus is placed on curiosity, creating value, and making connections. EMpwr has been cosponsoring discussion dinners. There are hopes to expand the discussion dinners to include more participants and encourage more majors to attend. 

== 24 Hour Imagination Quest  ==

The 24 Hour IQ is inspired by Villanova University and will be held for the second time this upcoming spring. In the span of 24 (non-consecutive!) hours, randomized groups of students must get inspired, find opportunities, and create a business proposition. The weekend-long competition yields cash prizes to the top three winners and provides excellent first-hand innovation and entrepreneurship experiences.

== K-SIDE  ==

The KEEN Summer Interdisciplinary Design Experience (K-SIDE) will be a week and a half long intensive program offered during May at the University of New Haven. Inspired by Bucknell University, interdisciplinary teams work for no credit or pay to imagine, prototype and pitch a device that will contribute to the solution of a social problem. More details will come as the event nears.

= Strategy #4: Resources  =

== Mentorship  ==

Currently, there are many opportunities at the University of New Haven available to students. However, not all may be aware of events and programs that are offered. Additionally, some students may need guidance. The E2-LLC hires a student peer mentor and coordinator to faciliate events and connect students with opportunities. The University should collectively work towards implementing more peer mentors, whether staff or student mentors, to motivate and inform students of I&E opportunities and events. 

= Strategy #5: Curriculum   =

== KEEN   ==

The Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) has been providing grant money to the University of New Haven to implement programs that promote I&E within the engineering curriculum. Initiatives include Engineering Applied Science (EASC) classes such as Intro to Engineering (1107 P), Project Management (2232), and Global Solutions to Sustainability (3300). KEEN modules implemented into classes place a focus on I&E and make useful connections. The engineering department should continue its work with KEEN, and other departments should use the KEEN iniatives as models for similar I&E implementation.

== Service Learning  ==

Service Learning is a component of specific courses that look to go beyond the classroom. Experiential education states that the best way to learn is by doing, therefore more courses should implement service learning initiatives to encourage more real-world encounters. An example is Civil Engineering Systems (CIVL 2218) where the class (Spring 2015) was required to survey the conditions of the City of West Haven's sidewalks and create a State of Repair report to present in front of City Hall.

The KEEN Summer Interdisciplinary Design Experience (K-SIDE) will be a week and a half long intensive program offered during May at the University of New Haven. Inspired by Bucknell University, interdisciplinary teams work for no credit or pay to imagine, prototype and pitch a device that will contribute to the solution of a social problem. More details will come as the event nears.

== KEEN   ==

The Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) has been providing grant money to the University of New Haven to implement programs that promote I&E within the engineering curriculum. Initiatives include Engineering Applied Science (EASC) classes such as Intro to Engineering (1107 P), Project Management (2232), and Global Solutions to Sustainability (3300). KEEN modules implemented into classes place a focus on I&E and make useful connections. The engineering department should continue its work with KEEN, and other departments should use the KEEN iniatives as models for similar I&E implementation.

== Service Learning  ==

Service Learning is a component of specific courses that look to go beyond the classroom. Experiential education states that the best way to learn is by doing, therefore more courses should implement service learning initiatives to encourage more real-world encounters. An example is Civil Engineering Systems (CIVL 2218) where the class (Spring 2015) was required to survey the conditions of the City of West Haven's sidewalks and create a State of Repair report to present in front of City Hall.

= Strategy #1: Implementation =

== Innovation & Entrepreneurship Living Learning Community (IE-LLC)  ==

The Living Learning Communities are the epitome of experiential education and can serve as a catalyst for I&E implementation efforts.  The Innovation & Entrepreneurship LLC (IE-LLC) will help students in all majors and disciplines who want to extend collaboration outside of the classroom and into a residential setting. Specifically, the IE-LLC will develop and strengthen innovation and entrepreneurship skills throughout the course of the academic year for students. Additionally, it will provide incentive and enhancement for upperclassmen residential life. The University of New Haven serves as a leader in experiential education.  

== Entrepreneurial Engineering Living Learning Community (E2-LLC) ==

Efforts are continuing to develop and maintain the Entrepreneurial Engineering Living Learning Community. The E2-LLC offers a variety of enriching activities, including monthly discussion dinners, 24 Hour Imagination Quests, and weekly meetings with the E2-LLC student coordinator. The E2-LLC provides its’ members the opportunity to pursue feasible projects outside of their academic work. The E2- LLC also provides its members the chance to participate in a threshold level of activities over their four years in order to earn a certificate. The Entrepreneurial Thinkers Certificate will give students an edge in today's competitive job marketplace. E2- LLC does not require separate housing or fees, but it does require membership in the Engineering LLC. Think of it as a supplement to the Engineering LLC. University of New Haven is proudly a member of KEEN, a collaboration of universities that strive to instill an entrepreneurial mindset in undergraduate engineering and technology students. KEEN’s mission is to graduate engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset so they can create personal, economic, and societal value through a lifetime of meaningful work. Graduates of KEEN schools will be prepared to identify new technology-based business opportunities in their engineering disciplines. This network of colleges creates synergy between member institutions that takes advantage of the network’s collective faculty in a manner that transcends an individual university’s status.  

== EMpwr  ==

EMpwr (Entrepreneurial Mindset Power) is a new recognized student organization that promotes I&E and involves all majors. The five pillars of EMpwr are:

#Leadership: Identify and pursue opportunities to develop the mindset, skillset, and world view related to being entrepreneurial. 
#Service: Address the local needs and apply the mindset to serve the community. 
#Outreach: Influence the future leaders, inspire innovators, and participate in enterprise. 
#Mentorship: Create meaningful peer to peer and professional relationships critical for networking and development of the individual mindset. 
#Competition: Innovate ideas and create novel solutions to real-world problems… Front-end of design with emphasis on the mindset.

= Strategy #2: Awareness =

== Innovation & Entrepreneurship Newsletter ==

Currently, there is no newsletter dedicated to I&E related news. There should be a newsletter, by print, email, or both, that places focus on the developing the entrepreneurial mindset and reporting recent innovations. For example, most individuals are aware about the popular product, the Sperry Boat Shoe. However, the majority are unaware of its origins. Inventor and sailor Paul Sperry slipped on a boat and fell overboard. The traumatic experience inspired him to develop a non-slip shoe. He observed his cocker spaniel's superior traction capabilties as it ran down an icy hill without slipping thanks to the grooves within its paws. The patented technology has evolved into a multi-billion dollar product and navy item still used today. Similar stories should be shared to inspire future innovators and to promote thinking above and beyond. 

== Entrepreneurship Hour  ==

The University of New Haven has its own radio station that broadcasts various musics and shows. Often, it encourages colleges and clubs to advertise events or facilitate hour-long discussions. There should be an hour dedicated to a conversation that promotes I&E and makes students and faculty aware of I&E events on campus.

The KEEN Winter Interdisciplinary Design Experience (K-WIDE) is a 1.5 week intensive program offered during January at Bucknell University. Interdisciplinary teams work for no credit or pay to imagine, prototype and pitch a device that will contribute to the solution of a wicked social problem.

Students from multiple disciplines work together on relevant, real-world problems and see connections between the various skill-sets provided by different disciplines. Students should expect growth in technical skills — fabrication, testing and validation, for example. Equally as important, students grapple with mindsets that will stretch them as designers, value creators and leaders. K-WIDE develops your marketable skills and may be a pathway to internships and summer research opportunities.

= University of New Haven =

== Overview: ==

Founded in 1920 on the campus of Yale University in cooperation with Northeastern University, UNH moved to its current West Haven campus in 1960 and opened its Orange Campus in January, 2014. The University operates a satellite campus in Tuscany, Italy, and offers programs at several locations throughout Connecticut and in New Mexico. UNH provides its students with a unique combination of a solid liberal arts education and real-world, hands-on career and research opportunities.

The University enrolls approximately 6,500 students, including nearly 1,600 graduate students and more than 4,800 undergraduates – the majority of whom reside in University housing. Through its College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, Henry C. Lee College of Criminal Justice and Forensic Sciences, College of Lifelong & eLearning, Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts and Tagliatela College of Engineering, UNH offers 80 undergraduate and graduate degree programs. UNH students have access to more than 400 study abroad programs worldwide and its student-athletes compete in 16 varsity sports in the NCAA Division II’s highly competitive Northeast-10 Conference.

== Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==

Currently, University of New Haven is does not have a major in entrepreneurship, but the business school is developing a minor. The Tagliatela College of Engineering is trying to introduce more innovative entrepreneurial thinking into its courses. Many of the faculty are part of an organization called KEEN. This organization’s mission is to help graduate engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset so they can create personal, economic, and societal value through a lifetime of meaningful work. Many of the engineering programs and courses generate awareness, help student realize the importance of innovation and entrepreneurship. Also, some courses help students learn to apply their knowledge of innovation and entrepreneurship to projects. These courses and programs can be seen in the Landscape Canvas.

== Encouraging faculty innovation and entrepreneurship ==

=== SURF ===

UNH’s Summer Undergraduate Research Fellows program is designed to engage students in the experience of applied research under the direct tutelage and mentorship of a faculty member.  The full process involves students crafting a research proposal, conducting a research project, and preparation and presentation of results in written and oral-presentation form at a research fair.  The program supports student engagement, experiential learning, persistence and mentoring.

Past and current projects can be seen here:[http://www.newhaven.edu/academics/faculty/research/SURF/ http://www.newhaven.edu/academics/faculty/research/SURF/]

=== Senior Design ===

The mechanical engineering capstone design course is intended to be a unique experience for senior engineering students. Students are required to complete a two- semester capstone design course sequence involving application of their theoretical knowledge to solve pressing real-world problems. Each project includes the development and use of design methodology, formulation of design problem statements and specifications, consideration of alternative solutions, feasibility considerations and detailed system descriptions. Projects include realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, reliability, maintenance, aesthetics, ethics, political and social impact. Students are expected to present orally their results in a series of design reviews. The students document their solutions using a written report that includes an executive summary. A working prototype or simulation of their solution, as appropriate, is required to complete the course.

Design projects enable our students to put into practice what they have learned and prepare them for the workforce. Business and industry sponsor these projects. Students team up as a business consulting unit to solve the client’s technical/business challenge over a 28-week period.

== Technology Transfer ==

The UNH technology transfer team is responsible for the identification, protection, marketing and licensing of intellectual assets developed by UNH faculty, staff and, in some cases, students.

The ultimate goal of the technology transfer program is to:
<ol style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">
<li>help realize the social and commercial value of UNH discoveries,</li>
<li>accelerate the pace in which discoveries reach commercial reality,</li>
<li>bring proper recognition to the university and its many innovators.</li>
</ol>

UNH is committed to achieving these goals in a manner that is consistent with the mission, values, and culture of our community.

Technology transfer at UNH is yet another manifestation of our pursuit of Experiential Learning, by actively seeking ways in which UNH innovations can be successfully introduced into the marketplace through partnering with commercial entities.

Active Technology transfer projects:[http://www.newhaven.edu/academics/technology-transfer/530477/ http://www.newhaven.edu/academics/technology-transfer/530477/]

== Facilitating University-Industry Collaboration ==

=== Co-op Program ===

The variety and number of co-op employers attest to their recognition that cooperative education is an effective way to identify and train future employees. Active co-op employers include American Cyanamid, Black & Decker, Corometrics, Dow UT, Dictaphone, Pitney Bowes, Pratt & Whitney, Sikorsky, and Remington Products, as well as state and federal agencies. Student assignments include computer programming, accounting, counseling, criminal investigation, and engineering.

== Engaging with regional and local economic development efforts ==

UNH connects with outside sources to help students develop skills and hands on experience in entrepreneurship.

=== Makehaven ===

Makehaven is a community workshop that helps aid not only students but members of the New Haven community work on projects and innovations.[http://makehaven.org/ http://makehaven.org/]

=== The Grove ===

The grove is a collaboration space to helps students and local entrepreneurs create innovative ideas in a very professional and welcoming environment.[https://grovenewhaven.com/coworking https://grovenewhaven.com/coworking]

Resource:HOW TO BRING A 3-DAY STARTUP TO YOUR CAMPUS?

= How to bring a3-Day Startup to your campus? =

=== <kbd>Introduction </kbd> ===

=== 3 Day Startup was incorporated in 2010 as a non-profit student organization that strives to activate entrepreneurs through experiential education in higher education. To date, 8,640 students and 123 schools across 26 countries have participated in 3 Day Startup. As a result of 3 Day Startup, 90 companies were launched, 34 accelerator/incubator applications were accepted, and over $70 million was raised by alumi. 3 Day Startup has ran 132 programs total.   ===



=== <kbd>Steps for Planning </kbd> ===

=== When planning a 3 Day Startup event, it is important to focus on approval, fundraising, marketing, and planning logistics. It is best to have one lead organizer, an assistant lead organizer, and a team to help plan the event. Fundraising is arguably the most important of the listed points. An approximate estimate for a 3DS event is $20,000. However, the cost can be deferred with proper budgeting and planning. University Innovation Fellows (UIF) get special consideration from the 3DS foundation, which will apply a discount towards the event fee. Costs such as transportation and food also need to be covered. The University can be asked to allocate funds towards the event. The best way to obtain funds from the University is by meeting with the individual deans of each college, requesting a reasonable donation ($1,500 for example), and then asking each dean to match the previous contribution. Another effective method to obtain funds is to involve the University President and executive staff and explain the importance and significance behind the event. Establishing critical connections could potentially lead to a meeting with a Board of Govenors. Subsequently after the event is approved and funded, it needs to be marketed to ensure sufficient participation in the event. Stationing a display table advertising the event will target students and faculty throughout the University, especially when located in a centralized, high traffic location such as a student activity center. Offering candy or other small giveaways provide an incentive to visit the table and listen to the pitch. Finally, the event requires logistical planning, such as a transportation provider, transportation timetable, facility usage, food delivery, and materials that may be needed for the event.  ===
