Course and Program grants are awarded to institutions to strengthen existing curricular programs or build new courses and programs in invention, innovation, and technology entrepreneurship, with an increasing emphasis on environmental and social entrepreneurship. Successful proposals present creative pedagogical approaches that generate and deploy student E-Teams, bringing real-life applications into the classroom setting and beyond.
An E-Team is a multidisciplinary group of faculty, students, and industry mentors working together to bring a product or technology to market. The “E” stands for excellence and entrepreneurship.
