UND School of Entrepreneurship Engineering and Mines Join Pathways to Innovation
E
ntrepreneur-minded faculty from the newly established School of Entrepreneurship and the School of Engineering and Mines are leading the creation of a new culture of entrepreneurship on the University of North Dakota campus. To help facilitate change that will make a difference for current and future students, UND was recently designated a Pathways for Innovation institution. Pathways for Innovation is part of the National Science Foundation-funded National Center for Engineering Pathways to Innovation (Epicenter), which is directed by Stanford University and the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA). The program is designed to help institutions
transform the way learning happens, giving students the technical skills, the tools and the attitudes they need to turn ideas into practical solutions to solve real problems.
