摘要

Engineering education faces a range of persistent challenges, including low student retention and limited transitions into the engineering workforce. This book offers a practical, research-informed response that places engineering faculty at the forefront of addressing these issues. It introduces a perspectives-taking approach to integrating the entrepreneurial mindset into core coursework (drawing on tools from bio-inspired design and the arts) to foster student engagement, expand participation, and strengthen the relevance of engineering education. Grounded in Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) principles, defined as the systematic study of teaching and learning processes in order to improve education practices and share findings to advance student learning across disciplines, this book offers both the rationale and resources, including course-based implementation examples, to support faculty-led change in engineering education.
