  • Innovators—creatively use science, mathematics, and technology concepts and principles by applying them to the engineering design process.
  • Inventors—recognize the needs of the world and creatively design, test, redesign, and then implement solutions (engineering process).
  • Self-reliant—able to use initiative and self-motivation to set agendas, develop and gain self-confidence, and work within time specified frames.
  • Logical thinkers—able to apply rational and logical thought processes of science, mathematics, and engineering design to innovation and invention.
