Group study of selected topics.

Have you worked on a startup, participated in a Challenge Lab, Big Ideas Competition, participated in a startup incubator, and/or have comparable startup experience? Well, then you know what it takes to go from exploring an idea, designing & validating a prototype, to product development and leading the team to deliver its full potential. This advanced course is designed to develop your entrepreneurial leadership, coaching, and team building skills. As an Innovators in Residence (IIR), you will be leading small groups of students in Designing Startups to Transform Society Challenge Lab (ENGIN 183C) to shape their learning journey. With guidance from faculty teaching the Challenge Lab, students in this course will create lesson plans and activities to teach collaboration, inclusive digital design, and prototyping. You will learn effective models in design thinking, innovation, leadership, team building, communication, collaboration, critical thinking, problem solving, and ethics. All while, concurrently leveraging your startup entrepreneurial experience to help student teams in 183C understand the business ecosystems, problem spaces, customers, and iterative innovative processes. Whatever stage the teams may have reached, the truth is that most teams get stuck or fall apart before they can ever deliver their full potential. As an IIR you will play an important role in helping the teams deliver their full potential by filling the gaps in entrepreneurial/startup education through coaching, leadership development, and team building, while leveraging your experience with entrepreneurship at Cal. This class is designed for students who have completed a Challenge Lab, Big Ideas, participated in a startup incubator, and/or have comparable startup experience. This class has an application to enroll. If you are interested in enrolling, please submit the application, and indicate the area of entrepreneurship that you consider your expertise, and provide brief examples. As we near the start of the semester, the instructor will review applications and notify you via email for a short interview after which your admission will be confirmed.
