Through our interviews and research for the University Innovation Fellowship (UIF) program, we identified multiple course offerings related to entrepreneurship and technology innovation. What we found, however, is that the number of engineering students taking these courses was very limited. Investigating the issue further, we found that courses related to entrepreneurship and technology innovation would typically be classified as "breadth electives" for engineering student. Next, we checked the college of engineering breadth requirement list for the most recent year. We finally realized that entrepreneurship and technology innovation courses were not specifically included on the list, while a lot of other courses were specifically included on the list.
