Abstract	Programming for Engineers is a freshman undergraduate class that is taught to mostly incoming students enrolled in the School of Engineering at Mercer University. For many students, this class serves as their first computer programming class. As part of the class, students have to complete two or more projects. In the Fall 2012 semester offering of this class, some entrepreneurship concepts were introduced in one of the projects. The motivation for this was to foster an entrepreneurial mindset in the students, as well as to expose the students to some of the practical applications of what they were learning. Results from the student reports, ways in which future course offerings can be improved, and the assessment results of student learning will be highlighted and discussed in the poster presentation.
