In response to the low exposure the I&E dpt has, we decided to survey students to know how many knew about the minor that is offered. Results on the survey showed that most students did not know Loyola had a I&E minor and wished they had been given more information. Through further investigation we found out that these students were highly involved in our community and would like to learn skills to further develop programs and ideas. We now understand that we must increase exposure to this major as it could be used as a bottleneck for future cohorts of the UIF team at Loyola.
'''Strategy #3- Reach out to other organizations on campus to incorperate I&E into other organizations'''
We discovered that many organizations, such as clubs, honors societies, and affiliate organizations already apply the principles of I&E but many do not know about the further resources on campus. Partnering with other organizations will not only get the word out about UIF but also help other clubs further their goals.
'''Strategy - #4 - Get Admin Involved'''
As a team we created an email template for if we ever need to ask important members of the administration for funding for our project. By selling the University Innovation Fellows and our message of spreading innovation in little ways on campus, we found it easy to ask for help from the school. A deep relationship with the administration is key to executing our plans as a team effectively. taking the time to carefully build a good lasting relationship with our schools institutions and students are a high priority for us.
