= Rebranding Innovation.  =

== Project One: Create ==

=== Tactic 1: Makerspace ===

Creating an innovation space on campus will provide students with the tools they need to implement the many ideas they have.  Allowing students to learn by doing will be a valuable asset to encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship on campus.  An innovation space enables students from all disciplines to learn to think creatively.  There are a vast amount of different activities that can be held in such a space.  This will be a space that the university can advertise in order to attract more prospective students.  All in all, an innovation space is a key factor in the pursuit of improving the culture of entrepreneurship and innovation throughout campus.

=== Tactic 2: Rebrand & Expose ===

The need to rebrand the University's Leadership, Entreprenurship, and Innovation efforts is a must if we want to excite and energize the student body with the opportunities available. This tactic will include a modern, simplistic logo and branding solution to represent the maker space and the opportunities within it.

=== Tactic 3: Makerspace Workshops ===

With carefully established protocol, we can offer MakerSpace workshops where students are welcome to observe, learn, and interact with the space with a knowledgeable guide. They can recieve beginner tutorials on the proper use of equipment, as well as a variety of other intellectual resources that will enhance their ability to be more innovative. These workshops can be once a month and cater to a certain theme, in which will open up another opportunity for us to bring in experienced innovators/creators from the local community.

'''Tactic 4: Increase awareness'''
While there are a few different options for innovation on campus, most students are not aware of the opportunities especially in the engineering school as most opportunities are provided my the business school. However, slowly both schools are becoming more innovative and interactive with each other. These opportunities are slowly becoming more available to all students as engineers and business majors alike are joining them and spreading the word of these programs

== Project Two: Pursue ==

=== Tactic 1: 3 Day Startup ===

3DS will bring students through the beginning steps of launching a company or project through innovation on campus.  This is an event that will allow students to learn by doing.  3DS teaches entrepreneurship skills such as ideation, customer discovery and venture pitching.  This would be a beneficial event for students interested in E&I.

=== Tactic 2: Multidisciplinary Hackathon ===

Hosting a hackathon on campus that invites students from all majors to join together to “hack” out an idea will expose students to innovation and entrepreneurship on campus.  Students are constantly developing venture ideas and an event like this would allow them to gather a multidisciplinary team and work together to accomplish a goal.

== Project Three: Motivate ==

=== Tactic 1: Bring Entrepreneurial Speakers to campus ===

Every year we have a Bauccio Lecture and bring in a speaker, but we should bring more speakers in throughout the year.  Having a monthly speaker will motivate students to pursue their ideas, and show that anything is possible.

=== '''Tactic 2: Host a TEDx event on campus''' ===

Hosting a TEDx event on campus, focused on innovation and entrepreneurship, can inspire the university into initiating a movement.  TEDx events are known for their motivational speakers and talks, and an event like this on campus has the potential to attract a large amount of students and faculty.

=== Tactic 3: Start Up Award ===

Having an award that is given every year at the university will help motivate students to create meaningful ventures throughout the year.  This will give students something to work towards while working on their ventures and promote entrepreneurship and innovation on campus.  Instead of giving the startup a large cash prize every year, we can give them an award of value, not just money.

== Project Four: Incentivize ==

=== Tactic 1: Student-led investment fund ===

Starting an investment fund led by students will give students to identify and student startups within the community.  Having an investment fund run by and for students will provide capital for student-led startups and allow access to the mentoring of local entrepreneurs.  This will also expose students to the Portland startup community.  Raising capital while you’re still attending school is very difficult, and has the potential to deter students from pursuing their ventures.  Therefore, a student-led investment fund has the potential to be a valuable program at the University of Portland

== Tactic 2: Increase funding ==

Speak with the office of development and Provost in order to discuss funding options from the community in order to fund the maker-space further and encourage innovation on campus.

'''Project Five: Collaborate'''

=== ===

Discuss with the Business and Engineering schools in order to incorporate some basic business classes into the engineering core curriculum so that the students are more well rounded and able to create a venture.

== '''Project Six: Incorporate''' ==
'''Tactic 1: Incorporate internships''' ===



=== Tactic 2: Talk with the office of development about relationship with local companies. ===

=== Tactic 3: Talk with engineering and business post graduation centers in order to see how students could incorporate these internships or jobs to make it easier for students to get jobs. ===

=== '''Promoting student innovation and entrepreneurship''' ===
'''[[File:University Portland logo.png]]'''
~At the University of Portland we are promoting Entrepreneurship and Innovation through a variety of different programs and extracurricular activities~  

There is an Entrepreneurial Scholars Program, which is comprised of a competitively selected group of undergraduate students and teaches the fundamental skillsets of developing a business model, pairs students with a local mentor related to their field, and offers domestic and international travel opportunities to learn about conducting business in diverse markets. Students are responsible for creating a new business venture or social enterprise, as well as implement innovative products and delivery models for these organizations. Every year we also hold a 100k Competition, where students are able to pitch their ideas and ventures to a group of investors for the possibility of receiving funds to support full-scale launch. Students also travel to Colorado for a national elevator pitch competition.

We have constructed a brand new innovation maker-space in the school of business where students can pursue their innovative ideas.  [https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw]

The Technology Entrepreneurship Certificate combines theory and practice in an environment where academics are balanced with real world experience. Diverse cohorts are comprised of technology entrepreneurs from various fields and current students in Portland-area PhD, MBA, and JD programs. Over the course of a year, students will participate in and experience the entire spectrum of the commercialization process, starting with invention and product development, to technical and market feasibility analysis, through intellectual property acquisition and business planning, and culminating with venture funding and product launch.This highly regarded interdisciplinary program, jointly delivered by the University of Portland and Oregon Health & Science University, is designed for people with a passion for successfully turning ideas into ventures. It is particularly suited to those with backgrounds in science, engineering, or management and an interest in developing new business units from technology based intellectual property.

A national letter from UP and other U.S. universities supporting the “Maker Movement” was sent to President Obama. The movement celebrates Americans who use new tools and techniques to launch businesses as well as those who learn vital skills in science, technology, engineering, and math.

The University has just implimented a one year biomedical masters program. They are continuing to be innovative by looking at other masters programs such as implementing an entrepreneurial master’s program. 

We also have recently introduced the Leadership Certification Program, which is available to any student of any major that wishes to enhance their skills in working with teams, as well as how to direct others in an efficient and respectful way. This program was just recently implemented.

In order to further promote Innovation & Entrepreneurship at UP, we have recently launched the Dean's Innovation Challenge and attracted 8 interdisciplinary teams. This challenge was successful for a year but has since stopped and it now trying to be revitalized.  Additionally, The School of Engineering modified their core curriculum to allow students to take 9 semester credits of Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and/or business courses for academic credit.  This is just the beginning of the innovative revolution occurring on the University campus -- change is slow but expect more to come!!!

=== '''Encouraging faculty innovation and entrepreneurship''' ===

Qualities that are becoming more important to the Deans in hiring staff members is a innovative willingness and nature. While innovation is encouraged all over campus, there is not a strong connection between students and professors for implementation. The process of innovation is slowly becoming more prevelant at the University of Portland. Steering committee comprised of faculty from all 5 schools in the University created to develop and lead innovation programs.  Professors are becoming more aware of opportunities to become innovative themselves as well as to get students more involved. 

=== '''Actively supporting the university technology transfer function''' ===

The University's tech transfer policy is currently being reviewed and revised, in order to make it more friendly to student and faculty start-ups and industry partnerships.

=== '''Facilitating University-Industry Collaboration''' ===

Senior Engineering teams are able to work on projects from the local business community, both start-ups and larger firms. The entrepreneurship/innovation advisory board at the University is made up of entrepreneurial and innovation firm management. The E-Scholars program also allows for students to be pared with mentors from the community to refine their ideas and help make it happen.

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

Staff and faculty regularly are engaged with Portland Development Commission, OHSU ED, Business Oregon (State) and have collaborated on several studies and reports.  Student involvement in these activities is anticipated to begin next year. The MECOP program is also growing at the University in order to split engineers senior year into two years and add in two 6 month internships with local companies.

=== '''Promoting student innovation and entrepreneurship''' ===
'''[[File:University Portland logo.png]]'''
~At the University of Portland we are promoting Entrepreneurship and Innovation through a variety of different programs and extracurricular activities~  

There is an Entrepreneurial Scholars Program, which is comprised of a competitively selected group of undergraduate students and teaches the fundamental skillsets of developing a business model, pairs students with a local mentor related to their field, and offers domestic and international travel opportunities to learn about conducting business in diverse markets. Students are responsible for creating a new business venture or social enterprise, as well as implement innovative products and delivery models for these organizations. Every year we also hold a 100k Competition, where students are able to pitch their ideas and ventures to a group of investors for the possibility of receiving funds to support full-scale launch. Students also travel to Colorado for a national elevator pitch competition.

We have constructed a brand new innovation maker-space in the school of business where students can pursue their innovative ideas.  [https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw]

The Technology Entrepreneurship Certificate combines theory and practice in an environment where academics are balanced with real world experience. Diverse cohorts are comprised of technology entrepreneurs from various fields and current students in Portland-area PhD, MBA, and JD programs. Over the course of a year, students will participate in and experience the entire spectrum of the commercialization process, starting with invention and product development, to technical and market feasibility analysis, through intellectual property acquisition and business planning, and culminating with venture funding and product launch.This highly regarded interdisciplinary program, jointly delivered by the University of Portland and Oregon Health & Science University, is designed for people with a passion for successfully turning ideas into ventures. It is particularly suited to those with backgrounds in science, engineering, or management and an interest in developing new business units from technology based intellectual property.

A national letter from UP and other U.S. universities supporting the “Maker Movement” was sent to President Obama. The movement celebrates Americans who use new tools and techniques to launch businesses as well as those who learn vital skills in science, technology, engineering, and math.

The University has just implimented a one year biomedical masters program. They are continuing to be innovative by looking at other masters programs such as implementing an entrepreneurial master’s program. 

We also have recently introduced the Leadership Certification Program, which is available to any student of any major that wishes to enhance their skills in working with teams, as well as how to direct others in an efficient and respectful way. This program was just recently implemented.

In order to further promote Innovation & Entrepreneurship at UP, we have recently launched the Dean's Innovation Challenge and attracted 8 interdisciplinary teams. This challenge was successful for a year but has since stopped and it now trying to be revitalized.  Additionally, The School of Engineering modified their core curriculum to allow students to take 9 semester credits of Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and/or business courses for academic credit.  This is just the beginning of the innovative revolution occurring on the University campus -- change is slow but expect more to come!!!

We have constructed a brand new innovation maker-space in the school of business where students can pursue their innovative ideas.  [https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaW1CmLKx2u5CAzuKTt7aobEwOaMzCaYuwTlrNBTGaq0VfBFZ5cjWVmI9yRk6vxpsOwu9eCB-z8DPDZziP3o9mEYnycRGhXSLIa7KucE_HCtz1f8Jozw-dKhjI4edvMhfw]

The Technology Entrepreneurship Certificate combines theory and practice in an environment where academics are balanced with real world experience. Diverse cohorts are comprised of technology entrepreneurs from various fields and current students in Portland-area PhD, MBA, and JD programs. Over the course of a year, students will participate in and experience the entire spectrum of the commercialization process, starting with invention and product development, to technical and market feasibility analysis, through intellectual property acquisition and business planning, and culminating with venture funding and product launch.This highly regarded interdisciplinary program, jointly delivered by the University of Portland and Oregon Health & Science University, is designed for people with a passion for successfully turning ideas into ventures. It is particularly suited to those with backgrounds in science, engineering, or management and an interest in developing new business units from technology based intellectual property.



A national letter from UP and other U.S. universities supporting the “Maker Movement” was sent to President Obama. The movement celebrates Americans who use new tools and techniques to launch businesses as well as those who learn vital skills in science, technology, engineering, and math.



The University has just implimented a one year biomedical masters program. They are continuing to be innovative by looking at other masters programs such as implementing an entrepreneurial master’s program. 

We also have recently introduced the Leadership Certification Program, which is available to any student of any major that wishes to enhance their skills in working with teams, as well as how to direct others in an efficient and respectful way. This program was just recently implemented.

In order to further promote Innovation & Entrepreneurship at UP, we have recently launched the Dean's Innovation Challenge and attracted 8 interdisciplinary teams. This challenge was successful for a year but has since stopped and it now trying to be revitalized.  Additionally, The School of Engineering modified their core curriculum to allow students to take 9 semester credits of Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and/or business courses for academic credit.  This is just the beginning of the innovative revolution occurring on the University campus -- change is slow but expect more to come!!!

My name is Ryan Cebula. I am currently a senior at the University of Portland studying Mechanical Engineering while [[File:RyanCebula ProfilePic.JPG|thumb|300x400px]]also pursuing a minor in Entrepreneurship and Leadership. I intend to become an expert in the field of engineering, capable of using engineering concepts to create innovative solutions for complex, cutting edge technology problems. As I consider pursuing a bio-medical focus, I am intrigued by the possibility that my work will impact the quality of human life. Solving problems, guiding teams to create new solutions or providing consultative services all sound exciting. The diverse nature of the profession is both exciting and intimidating. I believe that broadening my skill-set by melding entrepreneurial and engineering concepts is a great next step in my personal development.
