<br/>The Stanford Innovation and Entrepreneurship Landscape Canvas is full of opportunities. &nbsp;Stanford University strives for innovation and creativity. &nbsp;Students have opportunities to innovation and entrepreneurship to the next levels with perceived value aspects ("Student, I&E is important. &nbsp;Make it a priority."), potential value aspects ("So, you want to learn more?"), applied value aspects ("You want to apply your knowledge to a specific project."), realized value aspects ("You have effectively engaged in I&E."), and reframing value aspects ("You have fine-tuned your understanding of I&E and reframed your approach to your education and career."). &nbsp;Stanford University, like most innovative campuses, are stronger in some areas of I&E values in comparison to others.
 
Stanford University's strengths lie in the overwhelming spirit of entrepreneurship on campus. As many people say, innovation is in the air. Stanford also has many tangible resources that provide force behind innovation and entreprenership, including venture spaces on and associated with our campus. &nbsp;Some of these include:
 
The Product Realization Lab ([https://productrealization.stanford.edu/ https://productrealization.stanford.edu/])
 
Design for America ([http://designforamerica.com/studios/stanford/ http://designforamerica.com/studios/stanford/])
 
StartX (startx.stanford.edu)
 
BASES (bases.stanford.edu)
 
among others.&nbsp;
 
While these resources are utilized by many students, there is certainly room for improvement, namely in students discovering these resources earlier in the year. Not all incoming students realize that entrepreneurship and innovation are an option or even important or interesting. A couple of our main goals for I&E projects include getting more students involved in deeper relationships with other like-minded students, and allowing more students to be exposed to topics such as design thinking.
<p style="text-align: center"></p>
= Strategy #1: Changing the Potential Value on Stanford University's CampusStudent Desire for I&E Classes<br/> = While not all students are exposed to entrepreneurship when they first get here, as a whole among the student body there is a high demand for project-based design classes. A common piece of advice to students is to "take a d.school class!" However, this is more easily said than done. Due to the nature of project-based classes, there is a need to keep these courses relatively small. This limits the number of students who are able to take classes that are both interesting and beneficial. One fix to this would be to simply include more design-thinking classes. This also presents a challenge. Following are some ideas for implementing this idea. == Ideas ==
Following are an array of strategies that will fully address Gap #1 over a 2-3 year period=== Option One:Faculty Taught Classes ===
== Tactic #1: The Design A traditional method for class is to hold professor-lectured sessions. This could prove somewhat difficult in recruiting extra faculty or adding on more responsibility to faculty who already teach and Entrepreneurship Class taught by students ==may not be willing or able to take on more responsibilities. There is also the option for professors to hold smaller classes or less frequently meeting classes. This brings us to...
*Description=== Option Two:*Team Leader(s): Autumn Turpin and Capella Kerst**Pop-up Classes ===
== Tactic #2This is already implemented in part by the d.school. These classes ([http://dschool.stanford.edu/classes/ http://dschool.stanford.edu/classes/]) are already pretty popular, and are admit by application only. This provides a possible barrier to students who are simply looking for an introduction to design thinking. There can be more pop-up classes added, and perhaps ones specifically geared towards inexperienced students (along the line of IntroSems ([https://undergrad.stanford.edu/programs/introsems https: //undergrad.stanford.edu/programs/introsems]) but more open to a variety of grade levels).&nbsp;I&E Course (Autumn your class) ==
*Description=== Option Three: The current I&E curriculums across campus address only juniors and seniors in the Executive Leadership and Entrepreneurship department, Engineering Senior Capstone Design Classes, or even only graduate students in the MBA in Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MBAe) program. &nbsp;What is needed is a course that brings together sophomore level students from all disciplines to introduce the concepts on innovation and entrepreneurship before it is too late. &nbsp;Many students do not encounter design or innovation until their senior design capstone engineering classes, at which point, the students have already committed to medical schools, law schools, graduate schools, or other careers that are not within I&E. &nbsp;This course will be offered to all colleges in hopes to bring together young, innovative minds to shape the I&E landscape at the start. &nbsp;In addition, plans to partner aspiring business students with senior design engineering and science students will help stimulate venture growth of life science technologies.*Team Leader:&nbsp;*Milestones:**Curriculum Assessment- completed with undergraduate student services coordinators- January 2014**Small Interest Meetings with faculty and students of affected departments- March 2014**Preparation of Audience- completed with help from Martine LaBerge (current Bioengineering Department Head)- May 2014**Presentation to Undergraduate Advisory Council, Board of Trustees, and University President- June 2014**Curriculum Preparation- Fall 2014**Faculty Search- Spring and Summer 2014**Full Acceptance into Undergraduate Curriculum-Fall 2014Workshops ===
== Tactic #3: CoAnother option that is on a lower-Ed commitment scale than pop-up classes is day or week long workshops. Stanford does hold an entrepreneurship week, but what about including one or more of these weeks per quarter? The quarter system moves very quickly, and students who are interested in entrepreneurship fraterunity&nbsp; ==may miss out on one week due to prior commitments but still be interested and want another opportunity. Workshops for students would allow students to have fun and learn, and to take a break from the hectic schedule that a rigorous courseload on a quarter system brings.

= Strategy #2: Executing Effectiveness Finally, our last idea for implementing more classes for students based around I&E focuses on student-led classes. There are more than a few design students at Stanford, and a portion of these students are interested in teaching. Why not tap this resource? The senior capstone classes for the Reframing Value at Stanford<br/> =product design major focus on producing a real-world project, and one of these options could be implementing and teaching a class about design thinking to underclassmen.&nbsp;
Following are an array of strategies that will fully address Gap #2 over a 2Additionally, Stanford runs Splash classes for 7-3 year period:12th grade students. This could also be implemented for Stanford students to teach their peers, and put on their own design and I&E expo.&nbsp;

Introducing these two flagship ideas will provide two unique outlets for student entrepreneurship. This is valuable because it allows students who are new or intrigued by design thinking and entrepreneurship to get their feet wet, and provide a close network and brotherhood with those students ready for a new level of entrepreneurship.&nbsp;
