Overview
New Mexico State University at Las Cruces is the second largest university in the state of New Mexico, and currently has more than 19,000 students. NMSU currently has a vision: the expansion of its entrepreneuship and innovation activities on campus. Therefore, NMSU, as of Spring 2014, contacted the University Innovation Fellowship Program for the sole purpose of training students on matters related to the I&E ecosystem.
Top Strategies for the Expansion of Innovation & Entrepreneurship
1. Bi-Monthly Workshopshops
The implementation of workshops related to Innovation and Entrepreneurship is one of the greatest key ideas for getting the students involved on these matters. As of today, many workshops are held on the Aggie Innovation Space, although more promotion to these events should be given, as well as a higher level of hands-on experience, probably by bringing people specialized on these topics.
NMSU is hosting a 3DS (3 Day Startup) starting on Sunday, April 13, 2014. This will definitely pull students interested on developing ideas, and put them to work by making them participate on online-based workshops. By having at least a bi-monthly event like these, a high number of students would be exposed to the intent of this strategic plan.

- Supported by current organization Arrowhead Center
- Require students to become part of Entrepreneuship & Innovation Student Organization
3. Expansion of the curent Aggie Innovation Space
