=== Strategy #1: Provide regular meetings where students can be presented challenges and invent unique solutions.Inspiring Design Thinking<br/> === Before students will truly embrace entrepreneurship and innovation they must feel empowered and the intimidation factor must be diminished in a fun and easily accessible way. The best way this can be done is by using what brought engineers into the discipline in the first place –problem solving and design. Students will be presented a problem, at each meeting throughout the semester, which they will be expected to solve in a unique and innovative way. The problem presented on any given day will range from broad problems such as global warming to very niche problems such as ways to improve the process of doing laundry. Students will be provided food as well as a variety of tools for prototyping and playing with their ideas in a physical way. The purpose of the club and exercises is not only to have fun but also inspire the kind of thinking required for entrepreneurs in the field of engineering.&nbsp; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he_tVZGnfvU&feature=youtu.be == Encouraging Pursuit of Entrepreneurship == Students are currently both intimidated by entrepreneurship and encouraged to follow the corporate route in engineering at Michigan State University. It is important that the campus culture encourages students to pursue their entrepreneurial goals as well as inspire capable and innovative students to follow the route of entrepreneurship following graduation and throughout their studies.

Many students, especially underclassmen, do not even have innovation and entrepreneurship on their radar, This unfortunate truth presents an opportunity to provide students with accessible and exciting opportunities to learn about innovation and entrepreneurship into curriculumearly on.<br/span></span></span> ===

A large part of the resources provided here are sustainable but may leave students unable to determine how to use this skill for their major. It is important that students leave the university with the tools necessary to maintain their innovation and entrepreneurship independently and successfully to use in their future careers.</span></span>

In order to follow entepreneurship they quickly realize they lack the tools necessary do this, we have decided to do sohold a monthly innovation and entrepreneurship workshop. This workshop will be lead by students for students. A large part of In this problem workshop, students will be introduced to design thinking processes in parallel with business model processes. Our goal is satisfied by the Innovation Center in the not to make every student at MSU a user experience designer or business college owner, but it’s important to teach students these mindsets in hopes that students leave the university with the tools necessary to maintain their entrepreneurship independently and successfullyit will make them better at whatever it is they are pursuing.</span></span><div><br/></div>== Related Links ==
