Finally, the last piece to the puzzle is the students. Yale is actively recruiting scientists and engineers in the same way other schools recruit atheletes. The first wave of students were part of the class of 2015, and in 3 short years, the culture == Entrepreneurship at Yale has dramatically changed. The exciting part is that this change is just beginning! We have the tools, and we have just begun using them. Students from all disciplines are excited by the new resources availible to us. ==

~~'''~~== Entrepreneurship in Academic Classes == Courses that support and facilitate innovation can be found in nearly all of Yale’s academic departments.  Classes at the Center for Engineering Innovation and Design (CEID) take a fresh perspective on what classroom learning can be. At the introductory level, factual knowledge is supplemented with hands-on experimentation and short-term project work in small groups. At the advanced level, students work on long-term projects in teams while professors act more like coaches than sages. Some courses lean more towards engineering, with a focus on working hardware and prototype testing. Others are more innovation-based, with a focus on sound conceptualization and plans for commercialization. Both require a design process infused with creativity and interdisciplinary collaboration to be successful. A selection of courses below highlights the diversity of academic offerings in which students engage in entrepreneurship, innovation, and/or design: MENG 489/EENG 481: Mechanical & Electrical Engineering Capstone Design CoursesStudy of the design process, including concept generation, project management, teamwork, detail design, and communication skills. Student teams implement a real-world design project with hardware objectives that can be achieved in a term, and a problem definition that allows room for creative solutions. ENAS 323: Creativity and New Product DevelopmentAn overview of the stages of product development in a competitive marketplace, with simulation of the process in class. A hands-on approach to creativity and the development process. ENAS 118: Introduction to Engineering, Innovation, and Design~~'''~~ An introduction to engineering, innovation, and design process, aimed at freshman. Principles of material selection, stoichiometry, modeling, data acquisition, sensors, rapid prototyping, and elementary microcontroller programming. Types of engineering and the roles engineers play in a wide range of organizations. Lectures are interspersed with practical exercises. Students work in small teams on an engineering/innovation project at the end of the term. MGT 464: Startup Founders Practicum: The purpose of this course is to provide full-time SOM students with a mechanism to work on their startup ventures for credit, applying principles derived from their other coursework, particularly the integrated core curriculum. Students in this course articulate milestones for their ventures and work with faculty, staff, and mentors to meet those milestones. Generally, the course employs “lean” methodology. Admitted students are given working space in the Honest Tea Entrepreneurial Studies Suite of Yale SOM’s Evans Hall.

The following [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10JRriFxI6lhJdf74oMh3CWgnNUkyIKTDuyTkyVuketE/edit?usp=sharing spreadsheet ] outlines specific resources that Yale has for furthering entrepenuership and innovation on campus broken down into the following categories: Make it a priority; So, you want to learn more; You want to apply your knowledge to a specific project; You have effectively engaged in I&E; You have fine-tuned your understanding of I&E and reframed your approach to your education and career. Each of the categories is necessary at different stages of a students path to entrepenuership. Yale has many resources, and this document's goal is to characterize Yale's landscape and identify our strengths and weaknesses.
