=Project Name: A Connected Campus: Student Achievement through Innovation & Entrepreneurship=

''Project by Faculty Innovation Fellows Candidate [[Faculty Champion:Julie Messing|Julie Messing]]''

'''Why is this project important to you, your department, & your Fellows?'''

This project is in the initial stages of bringing together a variety of individuals from across campus to develop and grow a network of engaged, passionate, and talented innovators & entrepreneurs. We are all operating in an environment of tight cost controls, decreased enrollments, and restricted funding. Not only is this a tough environment, it breeds competition for the resources that currently exist. By partnering with 2-4 deans with a similar goal, we have identified a growing group of campus ‘friends’ that see the value and are energized by working together to build something bigger, grander, and of more student value by collaborating.

'''Description'''

Our Connected Campus in I&E project has an ultimate objective of amplifying the entrepreneurial mindset and innovation culture at CMU...to make it a connecting thread across all disciplines and levels, from our regional MI campus to our global campus. We are shaping an environment with both student and faculty ambassadors that will place CMU in the top choices of incoming students seeking a campus life that invigorates, challenges, and connects them beyond their time in the classroom. One where employers vie for CMU graduates because of their intense, well rounded experiences and entrepreneurial mindset.

We start our journey to reach this vision by bringing together a team of a dozen+ of student ambassadors and faculty/staff across campus to connect, share, and build a variety of initiatives that reach across multiple areas to engage our teams in I&E. This will include activities like networking events, hackathons & design challenges, competitions, the UIF program, travels, supported research, connecting our multiple spaces, and much more. In our first year, we will develop a x-campus co-working & makerspace for building student community and evolve our annual marquee New Venture Competition into a campus-wide New Venture Challenge where students and faculty from across campus can showcase their I&E achievements to a wider audience in a day of celebration and recognition.

'''Stakeholders served'''
* Students across undergrad, graduate, and medical school.
* Faculty from disciplines ranging from creative fields, business & humanities to STEM related and our medical school.
* Deans and other administration to support the initiatives and offer guidance and motivation for others to engage.
* The external entrepreneurial community (alumni, entrepreneurs and the greater entrepreneurial ecosystem).

'''Key Milestones'''
* December 2021: Neutral student coworking & creative community space staffed, trained, and ready to officially open first of the year
* March 2022: First UIF co-hort to travel to CA, faculty/staff team connected, starting to grow, and preparing to host its first connected showcase in April
* June 2022: First showcase held, landscape map in Iteration #1
* September 2022: 2nd UIF cohort in place,
* December 2022: Student ambassador team plans and runs its first significant event
* March 2023: Campus-wide showcase grows to include 5+partners and has independent funding to help support it
