+===Why does RPI curriculum&nbsp;need to be revamped?===
 A majority of RPI student want to make a difference in the world. They want to change it for the better for billions of people. But, they must be equipped with the right skill sets in order to do so. Innovative and entrepreneurial thinking must be better ingrained into their education. They must learn that TECHNOLOGY has the ability to play a critical role in solving these kinds of problems. Leveraging the power of smartphones, sensors, and the Internet is key in order to create DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES for health, education, environment, and raising the standard of living. Integrating these values into engineering education is key to empowering students to develop a strong sense of empathy and a passionate desire to take action.
@@ Line 241: / Line 234: @@
 Students and professors must be fully aware of the fact that t'''he world has changed'''. Acknowledgment is not enough. RPI has an opportunity to be one of the LEADERS in using technology to benefit billions of people. Dr. Shirley Ann Jackson, the President of RPI, has made innovation and entrepreneurship one of the <u>key goals</u> in the Refresh Rensselaer Plan.<span style="color:#000000;">Her input, and that of the Provost and the Deans at RPI must be heard. Their suggestions regarding the efforts to expand the ecosystem of innovation and entrepreneurship at RPI must be noted and vocalized; the department heads and heads of </span>curriculum in&nbsp;<span style="color:#000000;">each department at RPI must be drilled down with this information.</span>

 '''&nbsp;'''Professor Tina Seelig said it beautifully in her Innovation Engineer talk - we must learn how to think in the terms of &nbsp;"? +&nbsp;? = 10" not "5 + 5 =&nbsp;?". Sure, “engineers make sure bridges don’t fall down," it is their responsibility. But engineers can also create ''new ways to communicate'', ''new paths to education'', and ''new technology ''that makes it possible for any one person, anywhere in the world, to get the best possible healthcare and education.

 A big theme we are wokring on this semester is communication. After interviewing students we have ocme to realize that RPI has a lot of resources to offer that are not being used becaues students do not know about them. There are also a lot of restrictions that are diffiuclt to keep straight. For example, the metal shop is only available to engineers while the woodshop is only available to humanities/ STS students. Students are confused about what is available to them. Our goal is to connect the students with the resources available. Another weak spot that we found when doing the landscape canvas was that most of the classes that expose students to I&E are not taken until they are upperclassmen. This somewhat excludes freshmen and sophomores from learning about I&E.

 <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 13.333333015441895px;">Students don't really know what a career as an entrepreneur looks like, or working on a startup. The status quo is to get an internship or a co-op, go through the general courses, and then apply for jobs as a senior. Because of this, four years of education is not looked at as "how can I build the skills required to do what I want to do", but how can I get the best grades and resume to get a job when I graduate.</span>
