Outside of these fields, students don’t seem to think there is a need to be innovative and entrepreneurial. The classes listed above show strong entrepreneurial emphases. In all of them, students create new product or business ideas and develop over the course of the semester by talking to potential consumers. While this is promising for business students, engineering students tend to see themselves as innovators and oftentimes have little interest in the business aspect. Engineering students were extremely interested in innovation and recognized it was a skill required of them. Students have a basic awareness that there are resources on campus for them, if they are interested in pursuing entrepreneurship.</span></span>

The issue on campus is that there is very little collaboration between these fields. Technical clubs and business clubs do not interact much</span></span>
