This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $499,381.00 to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) to integrate entrepreneurial education modules into the first-year course MET103: Graphics and Computer Aided Design. The goal is to build an entrepreneurial mindset and skillset among undergraduate engineering technology students, allowing them to bring a translational perspective to their degree program and the STEM workforce. The project will engage students to co-develop the entrepreneurial modules, which will be iteratively integrated and improved within the MET103 course. This will strengthen the connection between the course materials and students' authentic perspectives and interests. The project aims to examine engineering technology students' entrepreneurial motivation, co-develop the modules with students, integrate them into MET103, and conduct a mixed-methods study on the impact on students' entrepreneurial mindset and self-efficacy. The award period is from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028.
