In 2012, senior leadership at UWM set a plan in motion to ignite this innovation engine and since then it has been steadily burning while gaining momentum and attracting the masses. This movement began when the past Chancellor of UWM, Dr. Michael Lovell, - then the Dean of the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS), who - began forging industry partnerships with such local companies such as Ansys, General Electric Healthcare, Rockwell Automation, and Johnson Controls. As a result of these partnerships, new research opportunities began to flourish and the . The engineering faculty as a whole acted as first followers as they began collaborating in redesigned laboratories, state-of-the-art technical facilities, and through engaged in revolutionary classroom instruction. This garnered much interest and support throughout the school and the effects reverberate through the senior leadership and the then Dean of CEAS, Dr. Mark Mone, who later became the Chancellor of the university. Since Chancellor Lovell has left, a new Chancellor has been named, Dr. Mark Mone. Dr. Mone also serves as the former Chancellor's Designee for Strategic Planning and Campus Climate. In his cabinet-level role as chancellor’s designee, Dr. Mone works worked with the campus’ senior leadership, governance groups, and all stakeholders to develop UWM’s 2020 strategic plan, and develop and implement campus-level programs to improve the organizational climate.</span></span></span>
<span style="font-size:small"><span>To further grow the innovation engine, individual faculty sprouted up throughout stepped in from various departments, first . First through the business school, was Dr. Kanti Prasad, then the Peck School of the Art Arts with Dr. Kim Beckman, and followed by the CEAS/ UWM Research Foundation through Brian Thompson. Through outside investments, Dr. Prasad created through outside investments the Sheldon B Lubar, New Venture Business Plan Competition, where teams of students could develop business plans in competition to winning win initial seed funds used to start their companies. Dr. Beckman, developed an artistic showcase through multiple artistry-centric courses where students can develop ideas to showcase in a public “maker space” that the University owns. Lastly, Thompson organized, taught, and runs the Innovation and Commercialization class. It was at this time, that the Innovation Engine began to appeal to a new market...students.</span></span>

The next was Thus began the Scheinfeld Entrepreneur Fund, which was another business plan competition out of specific to students from the school Lubar School of businessBusiness. Additionally, momentum in the engineering and art schools began to rise and as Dr. Ilya Avdeev and Dr. Nathaniel Stern professors from each school respectively, created a course, called Product Realization, where students focus less on the business plans and more on developing their business prototypes by working with real industry partners. By this time, it has been about 2 or 3 years, and in In 2012, the various groups on campus along with the University senior leadership initiated a movement to ensure success. They all came together under the were led by faculty support of members Brian Thompson, Ilya Avdeev, Nathaniel Stern, and Michael Hostad to create the campus -wide inclusive Student Startup Challenge. This is the universities premiere student accelerator that focuses on developing student businesses while utilizing the lean startup methodologies and focuses on developing products and talking with customers. This competition not only solidified the innovation engine on campus but it also poured more gas on a pervading flame brought many groups and resources together by allowing the entire university, students, and faculty alike to take some sort of ownership or affiliation with the Student Startup Challenge through candidates that work to develop prototypes, quick pitches, and develop business models from research or individuals’ ideas from all departments of the university. '''Today, the student startup challenge has grown from funding 3 teams to 8 teams and still more in this following year.'''</span></span></span>

The innovation engine does not stop here, - UWM is determined to ensure ever lasting change by committing to collaboration and innovation by opening a brand new innovation campus about 15 miles west of the main campus that focuses on developing a world-class, public-private research park that spurs strong and enduring partnerships between academia and industry leading . The goal is to develop new products, spin off businesses, workforce development and jobs in the fields of healthcare informatics, biomedical engineering, and advanced manufacturing & energy.</span></span></span>

The UWM Research Foundation is an auxiliary resource for the university and the catalyst on campus for faculty innovation. The goals of with the UWM-RF is goal to provide opportunities for faculty and staff to gain venture funding, develop intellectual property, form a business unit, and truly go out and create a business. The UWM Research Foundation has created a set of programs designed to bridge the gap between research and commercialization. These programs target a range of activities from early discovery through commercialization. The Research Fellows Program provides grants to graduate students over and above other types of support; these "kicker grants" help UWM faculty in key areas to attract and retain the best and brightest students who play a critical role in their research programs. The Catalyst Grant Program provides seed funding to research projects with high potential for return on investment - through commercialization or ability to attract funding from other sources. The objective with faculty entrepreneurs is also to promote corporate partnerships and startup companies in hopes that they can commercialize ideas as they reach later stages of maturity. Underlying all of these activities is the management of intellectual property - which including assessing ideas, protecting intellectual property through patents and copyrights as well as licensing activities.</span></span></span>

Design Thinking Studio is an experiential and human-centered design course whose goal is for students to come up with innovative design solutions which could boost engagement, productivity, performance, collective learning, and ultimately, individual and organizational growth in work and learning spaces. Design solutions can vary in scale – from a single piece of furniture to a configuration of larger program spaces – and/or in strategy – from introducing new physical objects to incorporating new technologies into the space.</span></span>

'''Innovation and Commercialization'''[http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Ilian_iliev Ilian Iliev]
In order to compete in the economy of the 21st century, successful engineers and business leaders must not only understand technology, but they must also understand the process of bringing ideas to market. Innovation is the process of developing ideas and bringing those ideas to market. This course covers the basics of innovation and commercialization – the process of moving concepts from the idea stage to successful products and services in the marketplace. This course will draw on “lean launch” methodologies used in early-stage business formation (including the business model canvas, the customer discovery process and rapid iteration around a minimum viable product – MVP), and it will offer a taste of “design thinking”. In addition, this course will develop specific content areas and skills useful in engineering and technology ventures for both early stage and later stage businesses including intellectual property, venture finance, and financial modeling. The skills developed in this course are intended to be valuable to an individual launching their own business as well as to individuals who want to excel in existing enterprises large and small.Kaitlyn Jankowski

After some research they found a national organization, Student Veterans of America (SVA) to become a local chapter of. Unfortunately, the first year was slow going and the two were trying to get their feet wet with the process of requesting funds, office space and answering the question- what are we going to do. At the time there were few people involved and even fewer new people that stuck around after attending one meeting. Those that did stay were dedicated to becoming a resource for veterans on campus and all took an active leadership role. Going into year two, SVA had a loose framework, a business plan and a lot of meetingsSpring 2015 - but no new members and no real purpose. As one of the founding officers, Rob Salamon had pushed to limit the formal meetings and to get more people actively engaged one way or another.</span></span></span><div><br/></div>= Related Links =
