Examining the current ecosystem of our campus, it was clear that the university has recognise a need for students to learn about innovation and entrepreneurship. As a direct response to the demand. The university has introduced incubator-like programs for students and undergraduate courses to support ongoing students and new alike, in this area. There has been many successful programs and it has been well received by students of all disciplines.
However examining the bigger picture, it is clear that these programs overlap and no coherent community was formed between these programs and faculties. One of the problem space this strategy plans to address is the segregated but successful programs the university is producing. How The problem space became apparent - how can we conjugate these groups of highly talented people and their ideas to entwine a larger network and form stronger presence of innovation and entrepreneur at the university.
Following from this observation, the University Innovation Fellows plan to host a series of social events in the aim of joining the programs and communities. These social events are designed to cultivate conversations for students and staff members alike. It will be run regularly by students with creativity. Events such as interfaculty debates or startup fairs are a few among ways to get individuals involved.
