<span style="color: rgb(68, 68, 68); font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: transparent;">This innovative spirit is strengthened by a curriculum which involves classes with real world examples. These courses show students how to not only work with theoretical models of their designs, but also develop the economic and marketing side of their venture. These upper level courses include CHE 4410 Process Design and 4930 Business Strategy. MKT 4900, a new course piloting Spring 2015, provides all students with the opportunity to participate in innovative activities through experiential learning taught by local entrepreneurs. Additionally, this course helps prepare students for the campus wide Eagle Works business competition with $10,000 in prizes.</span>

~~<br/>~~<span id="docs-internal-guid-e3687445-336a-782f-7574-00420f4c83a8"><span style="font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); background-color: transparent; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Interest is also found at events like Tedx Nashville and E-Week. Tedx Nashville is a yearly event recently supported by the Dean’s Office, which promotes student attendace by purchasing student tickets. E-week is a national event in which many universities participate. During the event, various engineering majors are brought together and pitted against each other in competitions.</span></span><span style="color: rgb(68, 68, 68); font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even if you are not a business or engineering major, there is still plenty to take part in, such as the recent Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurship Forum where speakers from the NSF gave talks to faculty and students regarding I&E.</span>

<span style="color: rgb(68, 68, 68); font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: transparent;">Students can then take their ideas to the new innovative spaces on campus, the iCube and iMakerspace! These new additions provide Tech students with a virtual reality room, 3-D printers, and lots of lab space. The iCube and iMakerspace truly enable students to bring their dreams to life as they take shape and evolve through hands-on design and experimentation.</span>
