 == Strategy #4: Reduce Shortage of Software Developers for I&E == '''Leadership Circle Representative:'''&nbsp;[http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Isaac_Griswold-Steiner Isaac Griswold-Steiner] '''Problem Statement:'''&nbsp;Tech has many students with ideas, but most of these ideas require software developers (and talented ones) to some degree. Our Computer Science department is mostly theory focused and most students don't do side projects, which causes many students studying CS to not feel comfortable working on industry level projects as undergrads. '''Solution Overview:'''&nbsp;Solving this issue is going to require several overall strategies. These involve working with the department to have more software engineering projects (and ones with more rigor), working with student organizations to develop more of a "try, fail, try again till you succeed" culture. It's entirely possible to learn everything you need to know on your own, and as a full-time engineer you'll be required to do this. Finally, the last part involves creating coding courses for non-CS majors that help them gain the confidence to go out and learn on their own. === Tactic #1: Implementing Web-CAT Autograder in CS Department === *Description: Have the Computer Science department use an auto-grader for labs and develop better programming assignments.*Milestones:**December 2015:***Get the chair and associate chair of the department onboard with the project.***Secure funding for a server to run the system.**January 2016:***Get a working Web-CAT server up and running (and capable of grading Python, Java, or C++ assignments)**February 2016:***Find professors willing to test the autograder***Finish getting Python, Java, and C++ working on Web-CAT**March 2016:***Finish documenting how to setup and use Web-CAT (hopefully make some videos for that as well).***Create additional demo projects to show how to use Web-CAT***Trial run the system with students and TAs/Faculty and get feedback.**April 2016:***Secure a way for students to get elective credit if they develop good programming assignments for courses (or plugins for the system).**May-August 2016:***Test run the system with TAs, Students, and Professors. Take additional feedback and try to solve issues.**Fall 2016:***Run a course or courses using this system.**2017 and after:***Expand the system to other departments at TTU.***Maintain and build a support structure for the system in the CS department.***Reach out to other schools and try to help them do the same. === Tactic #2: Programming Courses for Non-CS Majors === *Description: Have a course in the concepts of programming (run by students or the department) for non-CS majors.*Milestones:**May-August 2016:***Use CS For All (from Harvey Mudd) to create a trial run of a course for Non-CS majors (2-6 motivated individuals).***Use the feedback to develop a larger course that can be run by students each semester.**Fall 2016 and Spring 2017:***Run a trial course for non-CS majors, larger this time (10-20 students).***Take feedback and improve**Stretch Goals for 2017+ (or, if I can find the support):***Build enough interest to get the CS department to have an official course based off of CS For All.***Use the CS For All course as a way to improve CS education within the department as a whole (more implementation in addition to the theory). === Tactic #3: Software Development Club Community Integration === *Description: Currently the Software Development Club is somewhat small and casual. The goal is to make it larger and more driven, integrating it more with the I&E community on campus (and hopefully the country).*Milestones:**Summer 2016:***Build a framework for integrating new officers and motivating them to overachieve. Possibly build a points system for the entire club. Rewards would include getting&nbsp;money to go to conferences.***Take select individuals and ensure they have (and continue) projects through the summer to act as inspiration for the rest of the team.***Train officers to relate on a personal level with members.**Fall 2016:***Get the members more self-motivated and in smaller teams (3-5 per team).***Change the culture and encourage members to work on projects for at least 5 hours per week instead of the 2 we do now.***Change weekly meetings to be more team-building, planning, getting help, and less about sitting quietly and coding.**2017 and after:***Work with other student organizations to find out what software they need. Teach design thinking to the CS majors during the process of doing these projects.***Get the Software Development Club traveling more, visiting conferences and hackathons. === '''Strategy #5: Encourage growth of I&E through incentivizing students through a competitively based hackaton & research project competition (HackConf)'''<br/> === '''<ol u style="marginfont-family: arial, sans-serif; font-topsize: 0ptsmall; margin">Description</u>'''<span style="font-bottomfamily: 0ptarial, sans-serif; marginfont-leftsize: 80pxsmall;">: Implement a hackathon + research presentation competition for high school students as well as Texas Tech University students to teach an important skill set for those interested in STEM fields.&nbsp;<li/span> <span idu style="docsfont-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Milestones:</u> *February 2016:**Have core member board meeting.

It has been really challenging to engage college students in Texas Tech´s innovation ecosystem and help them develop an entrepreneurial mindset.

A way to interest the student body, faculty, and surrounding lubbock community in innovation and entrepreneurship is crucial in fostering the innovation and entrepreneurial culture that Texas Tech is striving to achieve.&nbsp; '''Solution Overview:'''&nbsp;Hosting a UIF Regional Meet-Up is a great way to attract attention from students, fellows, and the community, all while showcasing the initiatives that Tech is working towards in I&E. Additionally, having a themed regional meetup is a great way to spark ideas and solutions to some of the problems we are facing in todays society. Bringing together a group of bright minds with similar interests in drive will undoubtedly yield noteworthy results. === <span style="font-size:large;">Tactic #1: Expanding Upon our Theme</span><br/> === '''Description:''' Having an intriguing, creative, and fun theme is of notable importance in every area of a meet-up. Themes not only help attract attendees, or gain sponsorships and partnerships, they most importantly guide the creative, idea-generating process. While TTU is still in the beginning stages of planning, the chosen theme is “Regional Problems and Ingenious Solutions.” We live in a unique climate and culture of which many standard solutions to community problems aren’t applicable. Not only would Tech gain from a weekend of solution generation, but our community, and attending UIF’s from nearby areas would take home tangible pieces of knowledge and experience. <spanstyle="font-size:small;">'''Milestones:&nbsp;'''</lispan> <lispan style="font-size:small;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-2ffe8dcb848850fa-4260d3a6-1ad82506-c4ad6137-f8cbe39f55f4a408e22965e2"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: transparent;">Class offering: Spring February 2016</span></span></li></olspan>
