A more entrepreneurial university

• Expand executive education 
• Increase Professional Mechanical Engineering degree 
• ROTC scholarship recipients 
• Joint ventures with WSU – where does it make sense? 
• Start a med school 
• Distance certificate programs – online courses, expand summer courses & online classes – including summer offerings at branch campuses 
• Confront sister units on land grant role – we can go anywhere with teaching and learning 
• Connect with Business on energy education 
• Connect better VIEW and COE – Expo (Sr. Design) 
• Create research expo w/stakeholders as audience 
• Strengthen regular presence throughout the state, employment retraining – teach entrepreneurial ideas internally 
• Willingness to change our offered majors – don’t just cut majors – make them current/real (change them to the market for our students and our world). 
• Private/public instruction 
• Indigenous center on STEM Research & Native American Graduate education 
• Develop integrated capstone courses with development of project as goal 
• Visible online electronic course offerings 
• Non credit workshop in higher education

• More grad student recruitment to faculty research interests
