There are two chapters that will be of particular interest to post-secondary researchers studying entrepreneurship leadership. Chapter 14 is a review of entrepreneurship leadership learning in universities, looking at student leaders of university entrepreneurship clubs and projects and chapter 18 analyses issues of entrepreneurial universities for not only universities, but policy-makers and other stakeholders.
The rapidly growing field of paleogenomics has brought together researchers from a wide variety of fields and perspectives in the social and natural sciences. This survey course is designed for students from all backgrounds interested in developing practical skills in ancient DNA methods, contextual research, analysis and interpretation. We will also focus on exploring and discussing ethics in the field and the implications of the growing interest of public audiences with ancient DNA. Throughout the course, we will also explore a variety of related topics by taking a deep dive into the archaeology context and analytical approaches of published case studies. Throughout the course, there will be a number of laboratory and computational activities to apply ancient DNA research methods. For a final project, you will explore a site, topic or study of your choosing with the tools learned in this course and evaluate the potential for ancient DNA to uncover new findings there.
This course integrates between sociological themes such as stratification, gender, culture, ethnicity, race, religion, political sociology and economy in order to study the Israeli society with all its diversity. Israeli society is a unique case for sociological study. A young nation which on the one side has a successful economy, but on the other side is dealing with an ongoing conflict with its Arab and Palestinian neighbors. Inequality rates in Israel are among the highest in the OECD, based on class, gender, ethnicity and nationality. Israel is exhibiting opposite trends between promoting gay rights and becoming more religious. In its 70th year Israel is facing deep social and political dilemmas which intertwine with major sociological themes. This course wishes to reveal these dilemmas and their deep complexities. The course will be divided to meetings which in each of them sociological themes and theories will be explored and problematized vis-à-vis Israeli society.

The construction added 91,492 gross square feet with 70,084 assignable square feet of space to the library.
Data-enabled design (DED) is a novel design methodology that is gaining momentum given the growing availability and maturity of IoT technologies. Experiences with this method are limited, for which it is interesting to study how different design teams apply and appropriate the method in different contexts. Our case concerns the design of a smartwatch app and an online dashboard to facilitate self-monitoring in cardiac health to prevent heart failure. We report on the design and evaluation of contextual experiences with the overall system, offering an accessible foundation for future iterative improvements. Our case demonstrates how the DED method can facilitate the participation of stakeholders and especially end-users, in co-designing within a heavily regulated and technologically rich context.
