Full textAbstract:
This study aimed to explore university students’ awareness levels about entrepreneurship’s role in promoting entrepreneurship in acquiring social and economic balance within Emirati society. A descriptive-analytical method was used, with data gathered from 365 participants through a questionnaire. The findings revealed that university students demonstrated a strong awareness of the impact of entrepreneurship on achieving entrepreneurship in acquiring social and economic balance equilibrium in the UAE. In particular, students from Ajman University expressed highly positive views on the entrepreneurship in fostering this balance. Additionally, the results showed no significant statistical differences in awareness levels based on gender or academic year. However, there were notable differences between students in scientific and humanities colleges, with the significance level below 0.05. The study recommends supporting students in launching entrepreneurial initiatives that contribute to entrepreneurship in acquiring social and economic development. Moreover, efforts should be made to eliminate barriers that hinder the understanding and practice of entrepreneurship.

<p>In recent decades, entrepreneurship has become a major economic and social phenomenon, a subject of research and a new field of education. While entrepreneurship is not a new concept, it regained importance particularly in scientific research. Entrepreneurship is seen as a vector for innovation and economic efficiency but also as a powerful job creator. Along with the evolution of entrepreneurship, there is a growing interest in the development of training programs to encourage entrepreneurship in universities. The challenge remains to find a consensus on the content to be taught and the type of learning to guide student behavior. Several empirical studies indicate that education can foster entrepreneurship. Yet the impact of entrepreneurship education programs on entrepreneurial skills and entrepreneurial values remains largely unexplored.</p><p>In this study, we used the theory of planned behavior to assess the impact of entrepreneurship education programs on entrepreneurial intentions in Moroccan universities, particularly the University of Rabat (Mohammed V University).</p>

Full textAbstract:
In recent decades there has been significant interest among policy makers in supporting entrepreneurship among university students, with the goal to improve labor market outcomes and contribute to the economy through venture creation. Drawing from the 2018 National Graduate Survey in Canada, our study examines who engages in entrepreneurial activity after graduation, investigating differences among demographic groups and between those who participated in entrepreneurship education on campus and those who did not participate. We find that those graduates who participated in entrepreneurship education are more likely to be self-employed and own their own business three years after graduating than the general population of university graduates. We also find differences according to gender, citizenship, and socio-economic status in entrepreneurial activity. Our results are consistent with previous studies documenting demographic disparities in entrepreneurship and provide more generalizable evidence about the relationship between entrepreneurship education and subsequent entrepreneurship.

Full textAbstract:
Entrepreneurship plays a pivotal role in economic growth for developing countries, including Tanzania. Unfortunately, the number of entrepreneurs in Tanzania is still lagging behind other East African countries. The emergence of knowledge-based entrepreneurship programs makes universities one of the vital supply sources for creating entrepreneurs. Even though it has institutional support from the government, entrepreneurship is still not considered a promising alternative career choice. Thus, we investigated the influence of perceived university support services on building entrepreneurial intention from the perspective of the University of Dodoma’s graduates. In this cross-sectional research study, a sample size of 120 is drawn from the business graduates of the University of Dodoma who have received entrepreneurship support services using two-stage random sampling, of which females were 37.5% and males were 62.5%. The data were analysed using multiple regressions. The study found that most of the respondents do not intend to own businesses. The study further found that perceived entrepreneurship education and business development support services have a positive and significant influence on the odds of graduates becoming entrepreneurs. However, concept development support has a positive but insignificant influence on graduates’ entrepreneurial intentions. Thus, we draw a number of recommendations for the theory, future research, and practice of university entrepreneurship support services.

Full textAbstract:
Given the major role of new enterprises founded by university alumni in creating employment and promoting economic development, it is well known that Chinese universities have implemented plenty of impressive initiatives to support students’ entrepreneurship. However, little is yet known about how students evaluate university entrepreneurship support and how it affects students’ entrepreneurial intentions. This study utilizes 13,954 recent college graduates from Chinese higher education institutions as a sample and aims to examine students’ perceptions of the support they received from universities and its influence on students’ entrepreneurial intentions. The results illustrate that students are not very satisfied with various university entrepreneurship supports. Findings also indicate that university entrepreneurship support positively impacts students’ entrepreneurial intentions, although it is not a very strong relationship. Moreover, university entrepreneurship support positively affects entrepreneurial attitude, subjective norms, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy, which in turn determine entrepreneurial intention. Entrepreneurial attitude, subjective norms, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy play a mediating role between university entrepreneurship support and entrepreneurial intention. The study contributes to the entrepreneurial literature theoretically and provides practical recommendations for policymakers and university administrators in China to reconsider and improve their entrepreneurship supports to encourage more students to become entrepreneurs.

Full textAbstract:
Aims: This article primarily investigates the status of innovation and entrepreneurship education in TCSOL at local application-oriented undergraduate institutions in China. It also explores pathways for integrating innovation and entrepreneurship into the major. Methodology: The study surveyed 238 undergraduate students majoring in TCSOL at Tangshan University, Hebei Province, China. The research methods such as questionnaires and interviews are used to collect the data. Results: The findings reveal that 52.74% of students have limited understanding of innovation and entrepreneurship concepts. 59.07% of students have participated in very few or limited forms of the innovation and entrepreneurship education, while only 48.1% of students have engaged in more than two types of innovation and entrepreneurship activities. Additionally, 45.6% of students believe that the proportion of integration by specialized teachers is average or low, 53.2% of students think that the TCSOL major is not suitable for entrepreneurship, and 40.51% of students indicate that they are unwilling to try entrepreneurship if they are unemployed after graduation. Conclusion: The integration of innovation and entrepreneurship education in TCSOL can be achieved through optimizing the training program and establishing a mechanism for training innovation and entrepreneurship talents; creating demonstration courses integrated professional and entrepreneurial elements, and deeply exploring the innovation and entrepreneurship education components embedded in each course; strengthening the construction of the faculty team for innovation and entrepreneurship education; valuing and actively organizing students to participate in academic competitions of the innovation and entrepreneurship projects; establishing a scientific and reasonable evaluation mechanism for innovation and entrepreneurship talents. The proposed pathways not only offer valuable insights for innovation and entrepreneurship education in TCSOL at local application-oriented undergraduate institutions, but also extend relevance to broader educational contexts, including other majors and comprehensive universities.

Purpose Universities, as providers of knowledge and technology, have a key role in society based on knowledge. The purpose of this paper is to identify and describe the technological innovation centers (TICs) of the federal universities of Minas Gerais, Brazil, verifying if federal institutions of higher education in the state are meeting the attributions outlined in the Innovation Act. Design/methodology/approach In order to achieve the proposed objective, each one of the public and federal universities in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, was outlined as analysis units. The data sources used for this study are intrinsically secondary and were collected from the websites and TICs of each university. Findings As a result, it was found that all universities have TICs, and are inserted into the State Intellectual Property Network. Those aspects show that the universities have been searching for structure themselves by the new entrepreneurial mission of today’s educational institutions. Originality/value As noted in the literature, more research is needed to examine the efficiency and professionalism of TICs in the entrepreneurial activity of universities because the institutionalization of TICs is still recent and many TICs are currently in an improvement phase of their activities.

This study provides a comprehensive exploration of entrepreneurship education in Malaysia, focusing on institutional and government initiatives to stimulate innovation, economic growth, and job creation. Despite compulsory entrepreneurship subjects in public universities, a significant rise in graduate entrepreneurs remains elusive. The study assesses the state of entrepreneurship programs in Malaysian institutions and benchmarks them against Babson University in the United States. Content analysis and interviews scrutinize program outcomes and course offerings in Universiti Utara Malaysia and Universiti Malaysia Kelantan comparing them with Babson University. Secondary data, obtained through desktop reviews, illuminate Malaysia's entrepreneurship education courses, assessed through university websites. Literature searches across databases and primary qualitative data offer in-depth insights, employing a mixed-methods approach to comprehensively address the research problem. Triangulation enhances data credibility, while qualitative and quantitative data from experienced entrepreneurs illuminate practical implications. Findings underscore the need for foundational entrepreneurship education, practical skills, and diverse courses. They emphasize a shift from a grade-centered to an experiential learning-focused approach, echoing calls for educational reform.

There is a growing understanding that professors worldwide are engaging in academic entrepreneurship. Still, many issues remain unresolved about the personal and institutional factors that influence professors' decisions to pursue such endeavours. This study aims to understand better the factors that influence academic entrepreneurship intentions in Chinese institutions. This work creates a model associating China's university context and academic researchers' psychological characteristics with establishing academic entrepreneurship using a classic entrepreneurial model and some studies on academic entrepreneurial intention. We use Smart PLS 4.0 software and a partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach to evaluate the model on 364 samples from China's teaching and research universities, with the findings indicating: 1) personality, individual resource capital, and government policy can significantly affect academic entrepreneurship; 2) university support environment can both moderate the relation between government policy and academic entrepreneurship, but also university support environment can significantly affect the academic entrepreneurship directly. The findings have significant implications for China's goal to encourage more extraordinary academic entrepreneurship around universities, as well as the strategy to establish an entrepreneurial university.

The study seeks to know if the acquired knowledge from entrepreneurship education offered in the university enhances and moderates entrepreneurship competencies on entrepreneurial motivation. The study employs both qualitative interviews and a cross-sectional survey of a sample of 300 graduates cutting across different faculties. The study finds that entrepreneurship education is a requisite to entrepreneurship motivation. It also reveals that entrepreneurship motivation could be predicted through entrepreneurship competencies. Contrary to the common belief that entrepreneurship education is a requisite to entrepreneurship motivation and competencies, this study reveals otherwise. It shows that entrepreneurship education does not account for graduate’s motivation to becoming entrepreneurs.The study recommends that the entrepreneurship education should be directed towards developing the psychology of graduates along the path of entrepreneurship to boost entrepreneurial motivation, skills, and critical thought. The study contributes to research on entrepreneurship. Specifically, it seeks to find out if the acquired knowledge from entrepreneurship education influences entrepreneurship competencies on entrepreneurial motivation.

The young generation as agents of change needs social entrepreneurship knowledge to create social entrepreneurship intention to solve social issues, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research was conducted to examine social entrepreneurship intention among university students in Batam City, Indonesia based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with the addition of empathy, entrepreneurship education, and COVID-19 stress perception variables to the framework. This research used the purposive sampling method through an online questionnaire that was distributed to all students of the Faculty of Economics Universitas Internasional Batam who took social entrepreneurship course. The data collected from 269 respondents were analyzed using SmartPLS version 3.0 to test the proposed hypothesis. The research result confirmed that attitude, perceived behavioral control, and empathy have significant positive relationship with social entrepreneurship intention. Entrepreneurship education and subjective norm have no significant positive relationship on social entrepreneurship intention. Meanwhile, COVID-19 stress perception was not proven to have a significant negative relationship with social entrepreneurship intention. Based on this result, universities are suggested to improve social entrepreneurship learning method so it can generate student’s interest in social entrepreneurship as an attractive career choice.

PurposeThe aim of the paper was to investigate entrepreneurship in a university setting and in particular amongst university managers, established academic entrepreneurs and nascent academic entrepreneurs. The purpose was to better understand the enablers and barriers to entrepreneurship taking place.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative, sense‐making methodology was used involving a single case method and a purposeful sampling approach. A three‐stage design strategy consisted of: identification of key themes by questioning university policy makers, managers and academic entrepreneurs; development of a questionnaire to profile academic entrepreneurs; and use of the questionnaire to assess preferences amongst nascent academic entrepreneursFindingsFour types of academic entrepreneur (hero, maverick, broker and prospector) were identified based on different approaches by individual academics to the use/production of discipline knowledge and the nature of their relationship with the host university.Research limitations/implicationsThe single case research is perceived as a limitation. Future studies will involve refining the level of analysis in terms of different disciplines and institutions.Practical implicationsThe results suggest that interventions to promote entrepreneurship within universities ought to consider different strategies in order to take account of preferences amongst nascent entrepreneurs.Originality/valueThe paper looks at entrepreneurship in universities from a corporate perspective rather than from an individual perspective. The powerful influence of the university organisational setting is therefore recognised in terms of the creation of enablers and barriers to academic entrepreneurship taking place.

Purpose Successful promotion of academic entrepreneurship is a determining factor in the pursuit of university entrepreneurialism. This paper aims to illustrate how qualitative data on the performance of the technology transfer office (TTO), based on access to intellectual capital (IC) indicators, can be transformed into a metric to provide insights that assist in strategy development for a university moving towards a more entrepreneurial configuration. Design/methodology/approach The TTO performance metric takes the form of a self-assessment of access to IC indicators, which are determinants of effectiveness. This study involves the use of the metric through the completion of an online survey and follow-up interviews, to collect and analyse the data. Findings The performance of 34 TTOs in continental Europe and the UK are measured, and insights into the success of promoting academic entrepreneurship were gained. The qualitative data are studied in detail to illustrate how the university can strategically leverage IC to enhance academic entrepreneurship. Research limitations/implications This study recommends that the university align the mission statement and organisational structure of the TTO, to enable access to IC. This, in turn, may result in increased academic entrepreneurship activities, which will drive the university towards increased entrepreneurialism. Practical implications The interpretation of the qualitative data relating to the performance of the TTO, and which factors influence it, aids in understanding the performance of the entrepreneurial university and illustrates, which strategic interventions can be made. Originality/value Understanding the link between IC, academic entrepreneurship (as encapsulated in the performance of the TTO) and the characteristics of the entrepreneurial university is particularly useful for university management decisions.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact that entrepreneurship education can have on entrepreneurial outcomes by the graduates from ZCAS University. The author aimed to investigate the perceived influence that various entrepreneurship education courses have had on a cohort of 76 graduates from the University’s School of Business that were pesuing Bachlor’s degree in Business Administration, Bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneusrhip, bachelor’s degree in Economics and Finance, bachelor’s degree in Accountaning. Methodology: A questionnaire with semi‐structured, in‐depth interviews was administered to 75 responsents via google forms. Findings and results indicate that entrepreneurship education is slowly having an impact on graduate entrepreneurship intentions as a progressive number of graduates accounting for 33% engaged themselves in entrepreneurship which ultimately has the potential to create jobs and and have a positive impact on economic development. Findings: The findings provide valuable insights for educators, policy makers and graduate entrepreneurs. Stakeholders such as government, local authorities and sponsors/parents could use this study to make better choices in relation to the education of future graduate entrepreneurs. The study therefore recommends among others inclusion of significant course content on entrepreneurship and investment in non-business and management related programmes of study. Unique Contribution to theory, practice and policy: This study provides an empirically rigorous insight into a relatively neglected area of entrepreneurship education research. It provides valuable data for stakeholders involved in both the supply and the demand side of the entrepreneurship education process.

The study therefore recommends among others inclusion of significant course content on entrepreneurship and investment in non-business and management related programmes of study. Unique Contribution to theory, practice and policy: This study provides an empirically rigorous insight into a relatively neglected area of entrepreneurship education research. It provides valuable data for stakeholders involved in both the supply and the demand side of the entrepreneurship education process.

This study was conducted to find out what the students’ views were regarding the right time to introduce Entrepreneurship into the university curriculum. The issue of when Entrepreneurship should be taught at university level has been a topic for debate amongst students, with some raising concerns that the course is not given adequate time to complete the entire entrepreneurial process. From a population of 477 students studying Entrepreneurship as a service course, 221 randomly selected fourth and final year students of one public university in Zimbabwe participated. The study employed a case survey approach which used semi-structured questionnaires to collect data. Thematic coding was used to analyse qualitative data. Findings were two-fold: that at the university under study, Entrepreneurship was introduced at fourth and final year level and that students felt that the course should be embedded into the curriculum earlier. Recommendations were that Entrepreneurship be taught from first year level to enable coverage of both the theoretical and practical components of the Entrepreneurship course. Alternatively, the study recommended that a specialised degree program be developed which would allow for the introduction of the Entrepreneurship course from first year university level.

Purpose – This paper aims to determine whether Chinese university entrepreneurship education matches the needs of undergraduates and whether the entrepreneurial interests and expectations of students who have received university entrepreneurship education differ from those of students who have not. The authors hope that the research findings can provide practical implications and suggestions for improving university entrepreneurship education. Design/methodology/approach – The authors chose one business university, two technology universities, and one medical university in Sichuan province and sent questionnaires to 350 randomly selected undergraduates. Based on data from 315 valid questionnaires, the authors conducted an empirical analysis. Findings – The authors found that university entrepreneurship education does not fully satisfy students' needs. The authors also found no significant difference between the entrepreneurial interests and expectations of students who have received entrepreneurship education and those who have not. Originality/value – The existing studies mainly focus on the supply side of university entrepreneurship education but ignored the demand side. The research is to understand the demand side – namely, students' needs for university entrepreneurship education. Are university students interested in new-business creation?. What are their needs for entrepreneurship education? Does Chinese university entrepreneurship education fit those needs? And finally, do the entrepreneurial interests and expectations of students who have received university entrepreneurship education differ from those of students who have not? Moreover, the study context consisted of one business university, two technology universities, and one medical university in a fast-developing region – Sichuan province. These universities are representative of the main categories of Chinese universities. Finally, the authors employ both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies to conduct the study.

This research examines how university entrepreneurship programs influence student startup activity and business performance. Four hypotheses are developed to explore the connection between entrepreneurship courses and programs with both the number of student startups and their success, while accounting for various university resources to isolate the impact of entrepreneurship education on startup activities. The study employs panel-data analysis using information from 130 universities in South Korea collected between 2017 and 2023. The findings of the research show that student startup counts at universities exhibited a significantly positive relationship with the total entrepreneurship courses, the number of major-specific entrepreneurship courses, and the number of practical entrepreneurship courses. However, there was no significant relationship between student startup counts and the number of general education courses or theoretical courses offered. In contrast, the relationship between entrepreneurship education and student startup sales was less clear. Furthermore, the number of student startup clubs at universities provided a strongly significant positive impact on student startup counts. However, these clubs did not have a significant impact on student startup sales performance. Recognizing varying impacts of entrepreneurship courses on student startup activity and business performance, university administrators should develop more customized programs to create a more effective set of entrepreneurship programs for their students. In particular, specialized programs or training initiatives should be introduced to help student entrepreneurs achieve better business performance. Our finding suggests that university administrators should place greater emphasis on the later stages of business operations, as participation in startup clubs does not necessarily lead to improved business performance.

In emerging nations like Ghana, unemployment has grown to be a serious worry for graduates. According to this perspective, the majority of graduates are recommended to start their own businesses rather than wait for positions from the government. This paper aims to examine the entrepreneurial intentions among University students, using variables such as Motivation, Family Background, Entrepreneurship Education and External Factors. This is a cross-sectional study where the results were based on the outcomes of a survey among the University of Cape Coast, school of Business students (n=130). Inferential statistical procedures such as the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test, Multiple Regression and Stepwise Regression Analysis were used to assess the study's specific aims and tested the four main hypotheses. The results indicated that all variables but Family Background positively influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions and that Motivation is statistically significant in analyzing the factors that significantly affect the students’ entrepreneurial intentions. Hence, more emphasis should be based on motivating the students both within and outside to enable them develop entrepreneurial mindsets. The study suggests that policymakers should focus on encouraging student entrepreneurship as it will be a proper management to deal with the severe unemployment issue in emerging countries, especially Ghana.

Aim. The aim of the research is to discuss how to design entrepreneurial mindsets in undergraduate students within the academic culture of a classical university..
 Methods. In order to become aware of the international perspective regarding entrepreneurship education, global innovation index, entrepreneurship education delivery models, global forums and entrepreneurship community platforms as well as the entrepreneurship barometer were taken into consideration.
 Results. A survey regarding the appropriateness of entrepreneurship education at IFNUL has been conducted. In total, 125 bachelor’s (55.2%) and master’s degree (44,8%) students from different Departments of IFNUL completed the questionnaire based on the Entrepreneurship Barometer. Thus, theverage rating (1 (low) – 5 (high)) of the likelihood that students will ever run their own business is 3.67. Based on the obtained results the course in Entrepreneurship and Innovation has been elaborated as a part of the curriculum for students of the Department of Pedagogical Education at IFNUL.
 Conclusions. Findings of this paper suggest that, in general, universities should promote entrepreneurship as a career option and provide entrepreneurship experiences to undergraduate and Master’s degree students. The change in the academic culture is the common challenge, which includes the introduction of entrepreneurial thinking and acting as alternatives to traditional teaching approaches and opening up the universities to the surrounding society and industrial ecosystem. The use of ICT and in particular eLearning in delivering entrepreneurial education might be an additional option for expanding the outreach of the course.
 Key words: entrepreneurial mindset, entrepreneurial learning, entrepreneurship program, entrepreneurship and innovation, undergraduate students.

Higher education institutions are expected to cope and respond to the dynamic of society, participate in job creation and generate economic productivity. One way to make it happen is through entrepreneurship. This research aimed to propose an entrepreneurial intention model specific for higher education graduates in Indonesia. Using data from Survei Angkatan Kerja Nasional (Sakernas) 2019 and Probit analysis, this study found that there was a declining intention in graduates with higher education. So does the graduates with training certificate tend to have a lower intention. These implied that higher human capital, which is formed from education and training, tends to lead higher education graduates to non-entrepreneurship occupations. However, there is an increasing trend in entrepreneurial intention for both fresh graduates and those who have had previous jobs. Men in more mature age have higher intention into entrepreneurship, but after certain age there is an inverted U-shape relation between graduates’ age and their entrepreneurial intention.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to integrate and extend two models of entrepreneurial intention to investigate the drivers of sustainable entrepreneurial intention among intermediate undergraduate university students in Nigeria. Specifically, this paper aims to introduce education for sustainable entrepreneurship into the integrated model, thereby fitting the model into the context of sustainable entrepreneurship. Design/methodology/approach Data was gathered with the help of a structured questionnaire from 435 students of a university in Nigeria. The students passed through a special entrepreneurship training in which they were educated on the concept and practice of sustainable entrepreneurship. SmartPLS was used to test the proposed structural model. Findings The findings revealed that education for sustainable entrepreneurship significantly influences all variables of the integrated model, but has nonsignificant direct influence on sustainable entrepreneurial intention. Sustainable entrepreneurial intention is significantly driven by attitude and propensity to act. Therefore, the inclusion of education for sustainable entrepreneurship into the regression equation adds to its explanatory power. Originality/value This study contributes toward understanding of sustainable entrepreneurial intention of intermediate university students in a developing world context – Nigeria. Above all, it is among the few studies that shed light on the strength of education for sustainable entrepreneurship in the formation of sustainable entrepreneurial intention among students. This study proposes integration and extension (by adding education for sustainable entrepreneurship) of the theory of planned behavior and entrepreneurial event model in learning about students’ intentions to engage in sustainable entrepreneurship.

This paper aims to explore to what extent university’s role in providing supportive infrastructure contributes to venture creation. Specifically, best practices in stimulating technology-based start-ups have not been widely discussed in the context of developing country. Although the previous study has explored this from a management perspective, this paper provides further insights on how academic entrepreneurship or entrepreneurial activity in a university can be increased through various initiatives. Considering Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) as a case study, findings identify that collaborative business incubation and entrepreneurship education for academic entrepreneurs as evidence of practices that stimulates commercialization of university-invented technologies as well as develops academic entrepreneurs amongst research scientists.

Entrepreneurship education at the tertiary level is gaining ground within developing economies like Ghana. But empirical studies that assess the role of universities in stimulating and consolidating entrepreneurship traits are limited in emerging economies. This study is a quantitative study that adopts the structural equation model approach to examine the effect of four constructs (Attitude, Subjective Norm, Perceived Behavioral Control, and the Role of University) on the Entrepreneurship Intention of university students in Ghana. Results indicate a significant positive relationship between university entrepreneurial role and student entrepreneurial intention. Also, both attitude and subjective norm had a significant positive association with student entrepreneurial intention. The relationship between perceived behavioral control and student entrepreneurial intention was a significant negative relationship. These results provide an empirical basis for leveraging universities to stimulate students’ entrepreneurial intention within developing economies such as Ghana.

The study seeks to know if the acquired knowledge from entrepreneurship education offered in the university enhances and moderates entrepreneurship competencies on entrepreneurial motivation.
 The study employs both qualitative interviews and a cross-sectional survey of a sample of 300 graduates cutting across different faculties.
 The study finds that entrepreneurship education is a requisite to entrepreneurship motivation. It also reveals that entrepreneurship motivation could be predicted through entrepreneurship competencies. Contrary to the common belief that entrepreneurship education is a requisite to entrepreneurship motivation and competencies, this study reveals otherwise. It shows that entrepreneurship education does not account for graduate’s motivation to becoming entrepreneurs.
 The study recommends that the entrepreneurship education should be directed towards developing the psychology of graduates along the path of entrepreneurship to boost entrepreneurial motivation, skills, and critical thought.
 The study contributes to research on entrepreneurship. Specifically, it seeks to find out if the acquired knowledge from entrepreneurship education influences entrepreneurship competencies on entrepreneurial motivation.

Entrepreneurship education is quite a novel phenomenon that is gaining increasing importance in academia and practice alike. Entrepreneurship education aims to provide the necessary skills and knowledge that enable students to successfully found a new venture. Hitherto entrepreneurship education has not received much attention in engineering pedagogy. This finding is quite surprising because through proper entrepreneurship education engineers can be enabled to exploit entrepreneurial opportunities that result from technological innovation. Thus, we argue that entrepreneurship education should be a cornerstone in engineering education. The paper introduces the ‘Entrepreneurial Campus Villach’ located at the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences (CUAS). The campus is among the first in Austria that provide an extensive and scientifically sound entrepreneurship program. The campus focusses on the four core areas 1) research, 2) teaching, 3) coaching and support, and 4) infrastructure. The paper provides insights for other university and institutions that aim to set up similar concepts.

South Africa currently suffers from high levels of poverty, inequality and unemployment. However,the involvement of citizens in entrepreneurship is still very low for the country to rely on entrepreneurshipas a solution to curb its socio-economic crisis. Survival rates of established businesses have also proved to beworrisome in the country with lack of skills cited as one of the most contributing factors. The country is inneed of more entrepreneurs with better skills and understanding of business as that can facilitate jobcreation, poverty alleviation and economic growth. The objective of this paper is to analyse how Universitystudents perceive entrepreneurship in South Africa. Using random sampling, the study used a structuredquestionnaire to gather data from University of Zululand students. Employing the probit logistic regressiontechnique on 152 observations, the study finds Age, family business background, business course andentrepreneurial interest statistically significant on influencing perceptions of students towardsentrepreneurship. The study recommends that the South African Universities’ curricular be revised so as tostart equipping all registered students with entrepreneurship skills as this impact on their perceptions tostarting their own businesses after graduation. Also Universities should start acting as innovation andentrepreneurial hubs for both their students and the business community.

Student entrepreneurship is now widely regarded as a catalyst for employment creation, economic development and poverty reduction in South Africa and the world over. Despite this recognition, students in rural-based universities in the country rarely participate in entrepreneurship and innovation activities. Yet, reasons for the limited participation are scantly known. Bearing this in mind, this paper sought to understand students' entrepreneurship status quo and dynamics at the University of Venda in the rural Vhembe District. A qualitative case study was conducted to deeply unearth the unknown facets of student entrepreneurship, such as their entrepreneurship aspirations, challenges encountered, university initiatives to promote entrepreneurship and possible suggestions for promoting students' enterprise development. This was achieved following a qualitative approach. Data were collected using an open-ended semi-structured interview guide. Twenty students, ranging from first-year to PhD level contributed to the study. Results highlighted that students' entrepreneurial aspirations are closely aligned with opportunities that are available in the rural setting such as heritage, tourism, student products and services. However, key challenges like the lack of entrepreneurial role models, limited capital and poor time management derail the growth of students' adventures. Amid this predicament, university-led initiatives are still falling short in addressing these challenges. Thus, a concerted effort is required to provide student-informed solutions that are conversant with rural settings to promote entrepreneurial development and mindsets.

The evolving labour market contributes to high graduate unemployment, requiring skills and competencies that may not be taught at university. Entrepreneurship education teaches soft skills and attributes that produce multi-skilled graduates who do not solely depend on formal employment after graduation. An entrepreneurial mindset, as a learning outcome of entrepreneurship education, allows a person to create value by identifying and seizing opportunities, making decisions with limited information, and remaining flexible and resilient in frequently complex and uncertain situations. Hence, this study aims to evaluate how entrepreneurship education influences the entrepreneurial mindset of chemistry students at a university in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. The paper employed a qualitative research methodology in the form of open-ended questionnaires, adopted Bandura's social cognitive theory, and utilised thematic data analysis to achieve the set aim. The sample size consists of 10 purposively selected participants who attended the course. The key findings indicate that chemistry students understand how the chemistry course teaches them skills in producing everyday products and appreciate the exposure to business venturing through entrepreneurship education. The students identified profitable solutions to societal problems; however, they are unclear about where and how to obtain assistance in turning their ideas into real-life businesses. This study concludes that the course has a positive influence on the entrepreneurial mindset. It recommends that the institution redesign the curriculum to incorporate science-based entrepreneurship education by integrating chemistry and a practical participatory approach that demonstrates entrepreneurship through various production and business development stages.

<em>The concepts; entrepreneur and entrepreneurship, have become widely popular in politics and academia in the modern capitalist world including Nepal today. There have been diverse debates on the notion of ‘‘entrepreneurship’’ to distinguish it from the field of ‘‘small business studies’’. However, the concepts of business and entrepreneurship are closely interconnected each other. The concepts are also now entered into the university of Nepal with two objectives. First, is linking society and university. Second, is to stimulate potential entrepreneurs encouraging and supporting them to establish business through Business Incubation Centre established within University. This paper aims to highlight the key pillars of business and entrepreneurship in different parts, particularly at local level, of Nepal. It also aims to explain how the triangular collaboration; State-University-Market/Industry, could be the most effective way of promoting business and entrepreneurship in Nepal today. Based on various documents; academic and policy, and narratives-concerns expressed by university, industry, and government, this paper argues that the local level entrepreneurship initiatives can be promoted through such triangular collaboration. </em> <em>The interest and emphasis of State-University-Market/Industry are now focused on the entrepreneurship development and employment generation in Nepal which is manifested through three key pillars. First, Universities are focusing their academic activities; courses and teaching, on business and entrepreneurship-oriented higher education through academia-industry collaboration. It is often mentioned in vision and work plan including policies and programs of university as well. Second, the government of Nepal is also focusing its policies and programs emphasizing on entrepreneurship development. Federal, provincial, and local governments of Nepal are therefore provoking for new entrepreneurial initiatives. Third, entrepreneurs and business people (local, national, and international) are looking for suitable environment for investment in potential new business and entrepreneurship. They are urging government to create secure entrepreneurial environment. Thus, the potentialities of establishing business and entrepreneurship in Nepal is possible through triangular; State-University-Market/Industry (SUM), collaboration that leads to entrepreneurship development accelerating employment rate and economic growth in Nepal. </em>

The purpose of this paper is to understand how universities develop and support student entrepreneurship. We did a preliminary Systematic Literature Review (SRL) on scientific articles regarding student entrepreneurship published during the last twenty years. Our findings emphasize three main research areas, emerging from a cluster analysis: (i) student entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial intention; (ii) university support for entrepreneurship; (iii) entrepreneurship education and learning. Particularly, our study points out that the new paradigm of the entrepreneurial university overcame the classical university model through the introduction of many innovations to foster student entrepreneurship. This paper provides an SLR on university role in fostering student entrepreneurship and it is useful for the academic and professional community. Additionally, it is original because it highlights the future directions of entrepreneurship and the main innovations adopted by universities to help students in the development of entrepreneurial initiatives.

The research investigates why young people avoid selecting entrepreneurship as their professional path. Research investigators surveyed 670 postgraduate students across three eastern Indian universities for evaluation of their entrepreneurial intentions and factors behind such intentions. The academic research demonstrates that entrepreneurial intentions relate positively to both career planning knowledge and competency development in entrepreneurship. The predictors which significantly influence entrepreneurial intentions include career planning with entrepreneurial capabilities according to regression results. The research categories respondents according to their planning behavior and entrepreneurial skills to reveal both variables as key factors affecting entrepreneurial intent development. The study delivers crucial knowledge which educationists should apply to transform teaching methods by integrating career planning activities and entrepreneurial training for curriculum development to boost entrepreneurship.

Malaysia ranked 14th in entrepreneurship in 2021. This shows that the Malaysian government has promoted entrepreneurship at the tertiary level. Not all graduates become entrepreneurs. Instead of starting a business, graduates take low-paying jobs unrelated to their skills. This study examined private university students' intentions to become entrepreneurs and their motivation, creativity, attitude, ability, and university ecosystem. Additionally, this study examined the mediating effect of motivation on creativity, attitude, ability, university ecosystem, and entrepreneur intention among private university students. SPSS was used to analyse the 215 samples of private university students in the northern region of Malaysia. Findings postulate that only motivation and attitude affect a student's intention to become an entrepreneur. Motivation mediates between students' attitudes and entrepreneurial intentions. This study helps institutions, teachers, and policymakers understand what makes private university students want to start their own businesses. This means that strategies and policies can be changed in the future to encourage private university students to go into the entrepreneurship field. Keywords: Entrepreneurial intention,

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore trends in entrepreneurship spaces developed by universities to support entrepreneurship education. It identifies characteristics that make a space conducive to innovation and explains whether current spaces adequately conform to those characteristics. More generally, this paper seeks to clarify what is being built, for which purposes and with what results. Design/methodology/approach Given the novelty of this research, the paper uses a multiple-method approach to allow for an iterative examination between theory and data. Multiple data and methods were used, including an action research method, a systematic survey of 57 entrepreneurship spaces at US universities and a thematic and content analyses of interviews carried out with individuals directly involved in the functioning of such spaces. Findings The paper presents a prescriptive model aimed at guiding the practitioner in the design of an entrepreneurship space. It identifies five types of entrepreneurship spaces that differentially support entrepreneurial activities and rely on different characteristics. These characteristics are centrally important for innovation and entrepreneurship spaces. Practical implications There are a number of practical implications from the work. It identifies key challenges in the design of entrepreneurship spaces and shows which questions to consider in the decision-making process. Originality/value The paper advances research on entrepreneurship spaces, an important yet poorly understood phenomenon. It reviews and introduces the literature on how space can support innovation, entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial “spirit’” and proposes a typology of entrepreneurship spaces, providing a path toward more robust and comprehensive theory building.

Full textAbstract:
Artificial intelligence learning at higher educational institutions is one of the emerging concepts having vital importance to promote entrepreneurship activities among the university students. However, Malaysian Universities are lacking with the artificial intelligence learning activities. The objective of the study is to examine the role of artificial intelligence learning to promote entrepreneurship performance with the help of entrepreneurial orientation and strategic entrepreneurship. Moreover, the moderating role of government funding and attitude towards entrepreneurship is also examined. To achieve the objective of this study, a survey was carried out among the Malaysian universities. 500 questionnaires were distributed among the universities and data were collected from the teaching staff. After collection of data, it was analysed with the help of Partial Least Square (PLS)-Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). It is concluded that artificial intelligence learning is most significant to promote entrepreneurial performance among university students. Entrepreneurial orientation and strategic entrepreneurship play a key role to transfer the positive effect of artificial intelligence learning on entrepreneurial performance. Additionally, government funding and attitude towards entrepreneurship also has significant role.
