Changes

Florida State University, Panama City does not offer any sort of interdiscplinary course that fosters innovation and entrepreneurship.  This summer, a minor in entrepreneurship is opening up to students, but this is not enough to create a truly progressive environment that nurtures innovation.  Thus, a project based course should be established that combines all majors (targeting STEM students) to work together and solve a problem.  This course could be offered as an Advanced Elective over the summer, as it's project based approach would deeply utilize every student's respective skills from their major.  This course would probably offered towards upperclassmen, simply as these are students who have the skills necessary to create prototypes to completion.  This course has the potentially to make a local university, or city-wide impact, as the problems given to students can be related to these areas, in order to create solutions.

Steps have already been made to establish such a course, and the Faculty seems to think it is a great idea.  Currently, we are search for a professor that can juggle the wide variety of majors and synthesize the abstract nature of the class into one that can actually be created.
