This Partnerships for Innovation (PFI) project, Universidad Del Turabo Partnership for Innovations Program: Hispanic Entrepreneurial Program for Innovation (PIP/HEPI), proposes to transform the existing programs in the Schools of Engineering and Science and Technology through the efforts of a strong university/industry/government innovation partnership. The main goal of this partnership is to revise the engineering and sciences curriculum to incorporate active learning and integration of the engineering and sciences educational experience while addressing industry's need for engineers and other STEM field professionals with strong technical, communication, interpersonal, and business skills directed toward innovation. The project focuses on the introduction, modeling and sustainability of the Michigan Technological University (MTU) Enterprise Program model within a Hispanic serving institution and a Hispanic cultural setting at Universidad del Turabo (UT). The MTU Model provides knowledge generation through a non-traditional curriculum, which integrates student empowerment, hands-on practice of manufacturability, ethics, economic, financial, intellectual property, commercialization, alternative and environmentally friendly design and manufacturing considerations to real-world engineering/science problems in a corporate setting.Introducing the Hispanic Enterprise Program for Innovation, provides UT engineering and science underrepresented students a choice between a traditional and a non-traditional learning environment. The best practices will be disseminated to Hispanic-serving institutions and faculty of the US and Latin America/Caribbean through Latin-American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions (LACCEI). The project will directly benefit the Puerto Rico Eastern Central Region Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development (WIRED) Initiative or WIRED Virtual Region, as designated by the US Department of Labor in 2006. The proposed PIP/HEPI will allow addressing both NSF PFI and USDOL goals for economic and workforce development spearheaded through innovation in STEM fields. Partners: Partners include Universidad del Turabo (Lead Institution); Michigan Technological University (MTU); three industries: Lehigh Press, PRAQCO Industrial Supply, Inc., and New ValTech, Inc.; Technological Initiative for the Central Oriental Region of Puerto Rico (INTECO), whose Board of Directors consists of the Mayors of the Municipalities of Caguas, Gurabo, Juncos, Cayey, San Lorenzo, Las Piedras, Humacao, Naguabo (not-for-profit, multi-sectorial); representatives of five regional universities and seven industries); and Latin-American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions (LACCEI), consisting of 42 international institutions and 9 US institutions ( http://www.laccei.org ) (international dissemination partner).

这个创新合作伙伴关系（PFI）项目，德尔图拉博大学创新合作伙伴关系计划：西班牙裔创新创业计划（PIP/HEPI），建议通过强大的大学/行业/政府创新合作伙伴关系的努力，改造工程和科学技术学院的现有课程。 该合作伙伴关系的主要目标是修改工程和科学课程，以纳入工程和科学教育经验的主动学习和整合，同时满足行业对工程师和其他STEM领域专业人员的需求，这些专业人员具有强大的技术，沟通，人际关系和商业技能。 该项目的重点是介绍，建模和密歇根理工大学（MTU）企业计划模型的可持续性在西班牙裔服务机构和西班牙裔文化背景在Universidad del Turabo（UT）。 MTU模式通过非传统课程提供知识生成，该课程将学生赋权，可制造性，道德，经济，金融，知识产权，商业化，替代和环保设计和制造考虑因素的实践与企业环境中的现实世界工程/科学问题相结合。为UT工程和科学代表性不足的学生提供了传统和非传统学习环境之间的选择。 最佳做法将通过拉丁美洲和加勒比工程机构联合会（LACCEI）传播给美国和拉丁美洲/加勒比地区的西班牙裔服务机构和教师。 该项目将直接受益于波多黎各中东部地区经济发展劳动力创新（有线）倡议或有线虚拟区域，由美国劳工部在2006年指定。 拟议的PIP/HEPI将允许通过STEM领域的创新来实现NSF PFI和USDOL的经济和劳动力发展目标。合作伙伴：合作伙伴包括图拉博大学（牵头机构）;密歇根理工大学（MTU）;三个行业：利哈伊出版社，PRAQCO工业供应公司，New ValTech，Inc.波多黎各中部东方地区技术倡议，其董事会由卡瓜斯、古拉博、容科斯、卡伊、圣洛伦索、拉斯彼德拉斯、乌马考、纳瓜博等州的市长组成（非营利、多部门）;五所区域大学和七个行业的代表）;以及拉丁美洲和加勒比工程机构联合会，由42个国际机构和9个美国机构组成（http://www.laccei.org）（国际传播伙伴）。
