= Strategy #4: Create a pipeline for I&E<br/> =
== Tactic #1: Coordinate all the faculty and staff ==
*Description: This will be done by meeting with all the faculty who host I&E focused classes or programs and let them know about each other so they know where to send students for more resources. To begin we will look at our Potential Value and Applied Value resources listed in our Landscape Canvas. This is be the basis for our attempt to coordinate the faculty and strengthening our I&E Network.*Team Leaders:*Milestones:
*ADD Excel widget here.
== Tactic #2: University Innovation Fellow feeder program ==
*Description: Our current University Innovation Fellow candidates believe that more students should be engaged and have the same experiences we had. The UIF program was a way to jump start our thinking, our idea, and our belief that we could accomplish anything and leave a lasting impact on our community.*Team Leaders:*Milestones:
== Tactic #3: UW-Creative Commons Newsletter ==
*Description: Our campus has a lot of resources and a lot of people doing truly exciting work, however there is no centralized information bulletin board for I&E things. This will be our attempt to coordinate this and create a weekly digital Newsletter that we can have that goes out to all students on our mailing list as well as being disseminated through our leadership circle and other faculty and administrators who support our cause.*Team Leaders:*Milestones:
= Strategy #5: I&E Certificate Program and Curriculum<br/> =
== Tactic #1: Innovator and Entrepreneur Certificate ==
*Description: This is an incentive program where students can be rewarded for participation in I&E activities on campus and also use it as a resume builder. We want students to think outside the box, but sometimes a little nudge is needed and this might be just the incentive to get students to participate in both the extracurricular programs as well as the courses offered in the various schools. This certificate can be rewarded by the UWM Research Foundation so it is not truly an academic certificate but it is still supported by a reputable segment of our campus.*Team Leaders:*Milestones:
== Tactic #2: Graduate Certificate in Entrepreneurship ==
*Description: Create an official Graduate Certificate in Entrepreneurship. Many of our graduate students are participating in research which sometimes spurs into new ventures that transpire through our Technology Transfer Office or Research Foundation while other graduate students are pursuing ventures of their own. These ambitions should be rewarded and acknowledged. In a similar manner to our Undergraduate Certificate in Entrepreneurship, the graduate certificate would require students to take select courses that provide them the basic skills they would need, such courses could include:
*Product Realization
<br/>The Entrepreneurship Internship through Research Commercialization could be a course where students who are working with a faculty member or by themselves and they are trying to commercialize an idea and pursue a new venture or business could receive academic credit, due to experiential learning by doing.

= Strategy #6: UWM Innovation Center<br/> =
The UWM Innovation Center is our largest and most ambitious strategy yet. It will ultimately be the summation of all our previous strategies but in one location. This center will not only allow students to create but also allow them to work and meet side by side key members in the business world. We want this to be a place where students can meet with investors, entrepreneurs, businesses, students, faculty, clients, customers, and anyone else that they may need. This space will not only be a workshop but it would have a professional business lounge, have offices, house actual businesses, have a restaurant or two, and even have a few hotel rooms where students and maybe even a living learning community dorm.
== Tactic #1: Design the Center ==
*Description: Begin by getting input from faculty, staff, administrators and most importantly students. Determine what would be in the center, what would it be used for, what is the mission, how can it help the campus and get everyone to agree on how this center should take form.
== Tactic #2: Determine Logistics ==
*Description: Once the idea is formulated with a clear understanding of what the UWM-Innovation Center will be, then the next step is to handle all of the logistics. We need to figure out where we can build this center, how do we get it approved by the university and how can we put it into the University campus plan. Other things to consider are looking for investments.
== Tactic #3: Build the Center ==
*Description: The UWM Innovation Center is for future students, so they can have a permanent space on campus to create, build, and manifest their dreams.
