<div>The following is based off the RISE group from Rose-Hulman Institute for Technology.</div><div>[[File:Rise Group.jpg|thumb|Rise Group.jpg]] </div><div>RISE! is a group started at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology with the mission “to raise awareness of innovation through entrepreneurship and empower students to make their ideas a reality by giving them the tools to start, refine, and realize the visions that will shape tomorrow!” With the lack of desire to find entrepreneurship, the founders set off to start a club that would “RISE” awareness and put forth the action of the e<span style="font-size: 12px;">ntrepreneur mindset by bringing awareness and culture to their campus. The University is well-known for placing engineers into Fortune 500 companies, but not many of them are known for great start-ups on the entrepreneurial-side of the engineering world.

= Need and Goals =
<div>The goal of RISE! is to create a group with the ability to accomplish tasks quickly, as well as develop a network to explore the start-up world and have a great way to gather resources for other fellow “RISE” members in the years to come. The need was formed after feelers went out and over 60 students responded right away. The need was there and students were identified on campus that did in fact want an entrepreneurship group to help bounce around ideas and also create a cohesive group. The idea was to show a different path for students who wanted to take a more innovative route rather than graduating and working for a big company.<br/></div><div style="text-align: right"> <br/></div><div>
