→‎(2021) Strategy One: Revitalize Student Innovation Collective with a refined mission and vision

=='''(2021) Strategy One: Revitalize Student Innovation Collective with a refined mission and vision'''==

'''Mission & Vision:'''

SINC's Vision: To foster an environment for CSUF students to pursue their dream job or start up initiative

Mission for 2021-2022: Make engaging workshops and events about about skills students can begin implementing in their collegiate career and easily transition into their path of choice.

'''Current Status:'''

During training, our team utilized the principles of design thinking to identify the following issue with current student engagement in regards to their interest in I&E and their careers. Student Innovation Collective remained inactive from 2019 until now. We reviewed the operating principles and previous missions and visions of SINC and begun to curate workshops and events with SINC's refined mission and vision. As we had the opportunity to collect data about interested students during our university's club rush event.

'''Future Outlook:'''

Once our board members and student engagement is established within the next two semesters, we are determined understand trends in recruitment and retention rates of students and how engagement and content provided is affecting one another.

=='''Strategy One: Increase student engagement and bolster school spirit to increase I&E for the campus'''==

During our training sponsored by Google and the Hasso-Platner Stanford Institute of Design, our team utilized the principles of design thinking to identify the following issue on CSUF's campus: a lack of student engagement. This is in part due to CSUF's reputation as a commuter school, which is garnered from its geographical location as a midpoint between cities. As students fight for parking and adhere to the practice of attending class only to immediately return home afterwards, they forego the various opportunities provided by our campus' numerous resources. 

After precisely defining this issue, the ~~2021 University~~ 2018University Innovation Fellow cohort at CSUF has vowed to tackle the lack of student engagement on campus with current resources. Our team's approach was derived from conversations with stakeholders including student leaders and higher education executives. These meetings helped us conclude that this issue lies internally within the student and faculty organizations. Unincentivized call-to-actions, weak social media presence, and inefficient information channels are  concerns that students, student leaders, and faculty have echoed. Thus, it is our team's objective, or "strategic priority", to improve these organizational functions for our campus resources by connecting them with technological applications that may provide automation or stronger infrastructure.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P84L-KViigE ]

'''Current Status:'''

Since our primary project revolves around bolstering student engagement through technology, we aim to have a powerpoint presentation completed by late January 2019. Around this time, we will use the powerpoint presentations, which consists of our technological recommendations, to pitch our ideas for smaller organizations to adopt. Our primary target is the Mihaylo College Business of Economics, where many of our team members have already fostered numerous relationships with student leaders. We want to observe success on a smaller scale (hence business clubs) and measure this success using metrics such as membership counts, event turnouts, email inquiries, and financial transactions. Eventually, these metrics will assist our team in bringing the project to a higher scale to both faculty and the student government.
