<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">Michigan Tech’s campus is poised to be a model for student innovation and entrepreneurship. The State of Michigan has recognized the Houghton / Hancock area as a hotbed of innovation, and efforts to connect the School of Business and the School of Engineering are creating new business opportunities daily.</span></span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">The problem isn’t ideas. It rarely ever is. Uniquely, Michigan Tech doesn’t suffer from a talent gap. Michigan Tech’s engineers are recruited around the globe for their hands-on experience and industry-focused education.</span></span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">We’ll include a story to summarize the problem at Michigan Tech: &nbsp;One day in early April, a venture capitalist (VC) from Silicon Valley came to Michigan Tech to do due-diligence on a new technology being developed in 3D printing. The VC gave a speech and discussed her time at Stanford. She said, “I never thought about being involved in venture capital, but when I got to school, everyone was talking about starting a business and I felt like I needed to get plugged into that ecosystem.” Michigan Tech lacks that passion, enthusiasm, and culture. These three strategies are designed to remedy that challenge.</span></span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">A new center for innovation and entrepreneurship&nbsp;is the proposed solution. It uses new academic opportunities, event programming, and startup support to drive a culture shift towards innovation and entrepreneurship.</span></span>

== <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Strategy One: Invention Space&nbsp;</span> =Connecting Students through Sustainability=

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">A small maker space is currently When analyzing the first year experience at Michigan Tech, it became evident that some students felt disconnected from their peers in the works to be implemented different majors. For some reason, there was a barrier that was a barrier that was keeping these students from interacting with students that were in the current Enterprise labother majors. At To defeat this timebarrier, there are very few spaces on we want to be able to incorporate design thinking into some different areas of our campus where students can come together and to better help our peers be able to work collaboratively and have access with one another to prototyping tools and supplieswork on a common goal. Much One class on the Michigan Tech campus that sees a majority of the renovation necessary student body already tackles large world issues in a lecture type setting: Global Issues. Changing a class can take a lot of steps to create an effective invention space has been completedimplement. During this class changing process, but additional support is needed our team wants to gather tools and supplies. This space will allow us get evidence of how students working together to obtain student feedback in order work to potentially expand a common goal could be a good addition to a much larger and extensive invention space the class as well as get students more involved on our campus.</span></span>

<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;"><span style="font-sizeTo do this, our team plans on taking four steps:small;">This space will serve multiple purposes outside of providing hosting sustainability workshops in our campus's MakerSpace, deploying a collaborative workspace. It can be used sustainability survey through the first year students to hold classes in an non-traditional style classroom with an alternative setup. The Invention Space will also host events focusing gage their interest on innovation and entrepreneurship the topic, launch a sustainability initiative on the Michigan Tech campus mentioned below. The space will also serve as an "IP Free" zone in hopes that students would be less worried about having to worry about legal issues with the University help of different organizations and the student body, and implenting changes to the Global Issues class to incorporate more focused on creating new ideasdesign thinking and team work.</span></span>

<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;"><span style="font-size'''Sustainability Workshops:small&nbsp;'''Initially we want to start out with some sustainability workshops to see what portion of students are interested in taking a part of a conversation about sustainability. To do this, there will be three different workshops. It will be optional to attend any one of them without attending previous ones to work with the changing schedule of an everyday student. In these workshops, there will be a DIY recyclable project, a sustainability conversation, and a design thinking challenge to get students thinking about their own environmental "pawprint">Key Features:</span>as a Michgan Tech Husky.</span>

'''<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;">Campus Survey:</span>&nbsp;'''<span style="font-size:smalllarger;">Movable furniture: tables with adjustable heightsNext, we plan on taking a poll through the campus, ideally through first-year students to get their perspective on the new campus they've become accustomed to. In this survey, there will be questions about where their interest lies in different sustainability issues whether it be recycling, garbage, adjustable rolling chairsrenewable energy, and stackable seatingother topics. This will help see what sort of initiatives the student body would be interested in persuing and seeing implemented on their campus.</span></span>

<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;"><span style="font-size'''Sustainability Initiative:small&nbsp;">Prototyping supplies: one wall of '''With the data found from the campus survey, the room team will be lined able to find what larger interests our new students have with cheap craft supplies changing their campus. We plan on taking these passions from the student body and creating an array initiative that everyone can take a part of tools for students changing on their campus. This can be done by reaching out to different areas of the campus and helping with initiatives that are already in place as well as sustaining our own. We want to be able to create a community where people are able to help each other and work together to use</span>reach our common goal of sustainability.</span>

'''<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;">Global Issues Revamp:</span>&nbsp;'''<span style="font-size:smalllarger;">Technology: projector Once we are able to bring different majors together to encourage design thinking to bring solutions to our own campus, we want to bring this data to the faculty that teach the Global Issues class at Michigan Tech. We see great potential in this class to help students gain a larger appreciation for student teams the subject. Incorporating more group work to present assign students to different world issues will help students gain an understanding for what is going on in the world outside their ideas and 3-4 desktop computers used for product design</span>bubble on the Michigan Tech campus.</span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">=<span style="font-size:smallx-large;">OtherStrategy Two: storage space for student teams, portable whiteboards, and power distribution throughout the space for students to plug in</span>Innovation Learning Community</span>==

<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;"><br/>With the formation of the new Pavlis Honors College on Michigan Tech's campus, the are plenty of new opportunities available to introduce innovation and creative thinking early in the student experience. One of the best ways to inspire a shared vision within students is provide them with the opportunity to spend time with other students who are interested in similar ideas. By creating an environment where students are constantly challenged to think differently in their everyday experiences, they will develop a more diverse set of problem solving skills to implement in their daily lives.</span>

== <span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sans-seriflarger;">Strategy Two: I&E Event Series<br/>Next year the Pavlis Honors College will have a learning community for first year students in the College. This will be a great opportunity to test out some creative ways to incorporate creative thinking into residence hall life. Resident Assistants are currently required to create programs for their students to participate in and this would be an exceptional opportunity to test out some new ideas. Some of these programs that they do with their students make include some of the events such as the Make-a-thon or the 10X Thinking Workshop.</span> ==

==<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sansx-seriflarge;"><span style="font-sizeStrategy Three:small;">After creating an amazing collaborative space on campus, there will be plenty of opportunities to host events focused on innovation and entrepreneurship. These events will focus on creating excitement about the new initiatives on campus Innovation and recruit motivated students for the new I&E section of the Pavlis Honors College. The Pathways team has been working on bringing in a few speakers, and the student programming board is already planning an event to be held in the space.</span>Brainstorming Course</span>==

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">Examples Currently, first year engineering students can be found using their brainstorming and innovation skills in class. These skills are typically not used again until the student reaches their fourth or fifth year and are taking Senior Design or join an Enterprise Team. There are many instances where students have a hard time trying to think of events that can ideas for projects because they are trying to focus on what they have learned from the books, but when they get out into the real world, the answer will not be held in the space include:</span>back of the book.</span>

<span style="font-size:larger;">This class will help students to continue to use their brainstorming and innovation tools that they have learned so that they can use these tools in the future. This course will also help guide students to think outside the box so that it is easier to tackle problems in future courses and in the real world. This could possibly be a program of classes that will take <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">place</span><span style="font-sizefamily:smallarial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Speaker Series - Bringing during </span>both the student's second and third year in guest speakers who have had experience with I&E has proven order to make sure that the student is ready to be a strong motivating tackle the final projects before graduating and heading out into the work force for involving students. Possible topics include opportunity recognition, legal principles, entrepreneurial finance, strategic partnering and building effective startup teams.</span></span>

==<span style="font-familysize:arial,helvetica,sansx-seriflarge;"><span style="font-sizeStrategy Four:small;">Make-a-thon - An opportunity for student teams to come together and brainstorm possible solutions for an and all ideas. Some of these projects and ideas could potentailly be carried on after the end of the event.</span>Innovation Retreat</span>==

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">3 Day Startup - As mentioned in the spring overviewCurrently, Michigan Tech has&nbsp;a focus on retreats for Leadership and similar skills, but no such thing for Innovation. There is plenty of time within the goal curriculum schedules of the event is to connect engineers students who may be are interested in working with to attend a startup weekend retreat to business leaders with ideas they would love to see come the surrounding wilderness of Michigan Tech, and focus solely on Innovation and Entrepreneurship, to lifehelp cultivate an Innovative Mindset.</span></span>

<span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:smalllarger;">10X Thinking Workshop - An opportunity for This retreat would help students cultivate Innovation Mindsets by presenting them with real world challenges, and giving them time to understand work on finding solutions for these challenges, followed by creating prototypes of their solutions by using whatever resources they find in the steps to brainstorming and prototyping an ideasurrounding area. One On the final day, the students will discuss challenges in the local community of these already happened on campus Michigan Tech and how they might go about solving those challenges, as well as other strategies for staying involved in a small scale, but an innovation mindset after they leave the hope is to have more in order to reach more studentsretreat.&nbsp;</span></span>

===<span style="font-size:large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: transparent;">General Overview</span></span>=== <span>[[File:MTU TecHX.png]]</span> =Cohort 2020 Strategy Eight: Promoting Campus in an Online Forum= <span style="font-size:larger;">When analyzing the online experience at Michigan Tech, it became evident that some students felt disconnected from their classes and student resources on campus. A barrier seemed to had been placed between professors and connecting to other students to get involved on campus. To defeat this barrier, we want to be able to develop a new way students approach online learning. Changing a class and the way the university outreach's to students can take a lot of steps to implement. During this class and outreaching changing process, our team wants to get evidence of how students interact thought the current online systems and also how students get involved on our campus. Updated 2020</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">To do this, our team plans on taking four steps: hosting a meeting with interested professors to create a university template for canvas, create a new grading policy so students are actively engaged in their learning and not forgetting stuff after an exam, create one central website for students resources and student organizations, and looking into ways to help support our IT department.</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">'''Canvas Template:&nbsp;'''During this step we plan to have ten different professors who are willing to change their canvas sit down and draft a template. we believe that this will help students when going from class to class online to have a consistent spot of where information is located at. </span> '''<span style="font-size:larger;">'''Central Website:&nbsp;'''<span style="font-size:larger;">Next, we plan on taking a poll through the campus, to determine what method students would like to see resources and student organizations spotlighted. This will give us a better understanding of what we need to develop or fix. </span>''' <span style="font-size:larger;">'''Grading Restructure:&nbsp;'''In this step we will meet with current professors using the grading system we have identified and get specific research to use in a meeting with willing professors who would like to change their current grading systems. After we have this meeting we hope to have more professors adopt the grading system and get more research. After this we hope to create a university wide grading system. </span> '''<span style="font-size:larger;">Helping IT:</span>&nbsp;'''<span style="font-size:larger;">Once we are able to deliver the above steps we plan to help IT with everything. We plan to help them achieve some of their goals that they have been currently working on in order to promote us as more of a tech school.</span> =Cohort 2021=For our cohort, we've chosen focus on areas specifically involving connections. In the wake of Covid, we faced numerous challenges in terms of connecting with others and connecting with the resources and locations on campus. Our approach will focus on understanding what happened from a broad perspective; getting students to explore campus more; helping students learn about what resources exist on campus; and help give them an opportunity to show off their projects and creations. By reestablishing these connections, we hope to foster a more highly-functioning university, and get students to the place where they can be most innovative. ==Strategy Nine: Location Scavenger Hunt==<big>We've noted that navigation around campus can be challenging sometimes. Certain locations can be hard to find, and it's always a bit more work to find places for the first time. To help with this process, we're looking into setting up a scavenger hunt to help encourage students to explore campus and find new locations on their own two feet. Learning is always more impactful when you do it yourself.</big> ==Strategy Ten: Makerfaire==<big>We think it would be awesome to have people from all around the university get together and show off the things they have made. This should hopefully encourage a celebration of accomplishments and give students an opportunity to be inspired to work on their own projects.</big> ==Strategy Eleven: Resource Finder==<big>One key area we saw students struggling on campus was their lack of knowledge about university resources. We are seeking to remedy this by investigating the potential for a website and app that could help students discover the various resources and what those resources can do for them.</big> ==Strategy Twelve: Protocol for an Improved Post-Quarantine Learning Experience==<big>In Fall 2021, students and faculty returned to campuses with lingering concerns regarding in-person education. Easing the seismic transition will require learning institutions to actively engage with their demographics to determine next steps. This is particularly significant in deciding what quarantine-era adjustments will be integrated into course agendas and what modifications will be left out. Similarly, mounting pressure is weighing on universities to invest in improvements to their academic offerings following Covid-19. Determining where these opportunities exist to improve learning experiences beyond pre-Covid standards will require detailed introspection that is centered around student and faculty opinion.</big>  <big>The primary goal of this University Innovation Fellows’ project is to assess MTU’s student, faculty, and administrative bodies to generate recommended measures toward developing a post-quarantine protocol that aims to ensure an effective transition towards an improved post-quarantine learning experience.</big> =Cohort 2022=For our cohort we've decided to scale tings back in terms of what has been done in the past, we would like to centralize ourselves off of one identified problem and work together to determine solutions to solve it. This way we can each prop up each others weaknesses and use each others strengths to deliver a polished and useful deliverable. As with the previous cohort we've identifed an issue that students are often unaware of the resources they have available to them, and how to use those resources in an effective manner to bolster the value they get out of their time with the university. <br /> ==Strategy Thirteen: Student Experience Compounding Journal==Although online resources are plentiful and easy to access we've found from some of our interviews that students sometimes prefer a physical journal, something that they can hold and add to. We think that there is an opportunity to use these additions to create a journal that students can get at the end of the year, read, and then add to if they would like at the end of the year they can turn in this journal and then we can add some of the additions to the next year's "edition" for then more students to add to until we end up with a product with a lot of wisdom and insight for new students. <br /> ==Strategy Fourteen: Centralized Resource Finder==Our university environment contains a large quantity of resources available to students most of which can be easily researched online. We have found through various problem interviews that students are confused by how spread out it seems all of these resources are. This is mostly a result of departmentalized resources often not playing well with each other, thus creating a number of similar locations for different resources. This seems like it is a lot of duplicated effort that can be confusing for the end user, and also confusing for people trying to add to these sites or areas on campus. We would like to work with the university to foster a centralized solution so as to improve scalability and modularity of proposing new groups/organizations as well as an easy way for groups to announce new activities and changes. =Cohort 2023=For our cohort we focused on developing a peer mentoring program for new entering students might help them adjust to a new university or environment. By implementing peer mentoring initiatives that match current students (including transfers and international students) with experienced peers. Mentors may provide direction, answer queries, and give students an atmosphere of togetherness. This helps them in many regards like specialized help and advice that is suited to their unique requirements and problems, developing self-assurance in their abilities to make it through the educational system, this can reduce the feeling of isolation and anxiety faced by many new incoming students.  <br />=Strategy Fifteen: Peer Mentorship Program (2023-24)=Transitioning into a new college or university, particularly in a foreign nation, may be a difficult and bewildering process. A well-designed peer mentoring program may give the support, direction, and feeling of inclusion that these students require to succeed in their new surroundings. The major goal of this peer mentoring program is to help incoming transfer and foreign students make a smooth and happy transition. We hope to address their specific needs and obstacles by collaborating them with experienced Tech students, thereby boosting  personal growth, and social development.  Analysis of the information collected from discussions with stakeholders on campus, including faculty, staff, administration made it clear that first year students, specially transfer students and international students feel disoriented on campus during the orientation and transition period. There is a barrier in terms of proper and complete communication, handholding and guidance support to students. Even though there are abundant resources on campus and ample opportunities to explore campus life, incoming students are overwhelmed with the climatic and cultural change, and the onset of semester work leaves them with little ability to get comfortable with college life. We recognized an opportunity to create an innovative solution that builds on existing resources, is attentive to student needs and at the same time, is based on the value space created by faculty and staff.  We will accompany them on their journey and make them feel at ease in our campus community.  <br />=<span style="font-familysize:arialx-large;">Completed Strategies</span>= =====<span style="font-size: x-large;">Invention Space&nbsp;</span>===== <span style="font-size: larger;">A small maker space has been completed to be implemented in the current Enterprise lab. At this time,helveticathere are very few spaces on campus where students can come together and work collaboratively and have access to prototyping tools and supplies. Much of the renovation necessary to create an effective invention space has been completed,sansbut additional support is needed to gather tools and supplies. This space will allow us to obtain student feedback in order to potentially expand to a much larger and extensive invention space on campus.</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">This space will serve multiple purposes outside of providing a collaborative workspace. It can be used to hold classes in an non-traditional style classroom with an alternative setup. The Invention Space will also host events focusing on innovation and entrepreneurship on campus mentioned below. The space will also serve as an "IP Free" zone in hopes that students would be less worried about having to worry about legal issues with the University and more focused on creating new ideas.</span> <span style="font-serifsize: larger;">Key Features:</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">Movable furniture: tables with adjustable heights, adjustable rolling chairs, and stackable seating.</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">Prototyping supplies: one wall of the room will be lined with cheap craft supplies and an array of tools for students to use</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">Technology: projector for student teams to present their ideas and 3-4 desktop computers used for product design</span> <span style="font-size: larger;">Other: storage space for student teams, portable whiteboards, and power distribution throughout the space for students to plug in</span> =Related Links= <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Magann%20Dykema Magann Dykema]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">&nbsp;- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Josh_Jay Josh Jay]<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Rachel%20Kolb Rachel Kolb]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Josh%20Krugh Josh Krugh]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Rob_Lambert Rob Lambert]<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Kyle%20Ludwig Kyle Ludwig]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/ARSH%20SAHU Arsh Sahu]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">&nbsp;- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/David%20Shull David Shull]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Brad%20Turner Brad Turner]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> <span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">[http://universityinnovation.org/Adam%20Weber Adam Weber]</span><span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">- A University Innovation Fellow from Michigan Tech</span> [[Abby Kuehne|Abby_Kuehne]]&nbsp;<span style="color:#696969;">- A Univeristy Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech&nbsp;</span>&nbsp; [[Fellow:Rachel_May|Rachel May]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A Univeristy Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Nicholas_Green|Nicholas Green]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A Univeristy Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Katherine_Dvorak|Ket Dvorak]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A Univeristy Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Peter_LaMantia|Peter LaMantia]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Samuel Raber|Samuel Raber]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Lindsay_Sandell Lindsay Sandell] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Kyler Bomhof|Kyler Bomhof]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Suhayb Zeqlam|Suhayb Zeqlam]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Meg Rotole|Meg Rotole]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Fellow:Bayle LaDawn Golden|Bayle Golden]] -&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(105, 105, 105);">A University Innovation Fellow Candidate from Michigan Tech</span> [[Michigan Tech|About the University]] -
