The phenomenon of student entrepreneurship has not evolved by chance; the growing trend and dynamic growth of university-based start-ups have resulted with rising global demand for entrepreneurship education programs, entrepreneurship support structures at universities and associated entrepreneurial ecosystems (EEs) (Audretsch and Belitski, 2021; Liu et al. , 2021; Wurth et al.…”

PurposeDespite the significance, university student start-ups and student entrepreneurship ecosystems (SEEs) have been subject to little research. This study aims to apply a qualitative emergent enquiry approach to explore best practice SEEs in Australia, complimented by narratives from leading scholars in higher education institutions with the aim of delineating the integrative components of SEEs.Design/methodology/approachAdopting the entrepreneurial ecosystem framework and aligned to the social cognitive theory, this paper explores the components and dynamics of SEEs, contributing to an understanding of how such components can better support the growth, sustainability and success of student start-ups. The authors extend entrepreneurship research on social construction using narrative research.FindingsThe findings provide guidelines for researchers, entrepreneurship scholars and educators, entrepreneurship students, policymakers and practitioners to enhance the impact and success of university student start-ups by adopting a student ecosystem approach.Research limitations/implicationsThe narratives represent a limited number of universities with an opportunity for further research to empirically measure the impact and outcomes of SEEs. The research is exploratory, inherently conceptual and emergent, providing an opportunity for validation of narrative frameworks in future studies.Practical implicationsThe findings may assist university managers to be more aware of their own subconscious preferences to student entrepreneurship and start-up initiatives, which may be useful in refining their impact and offerings regarding a quest toward the entrepreneurial university.Social implicationsFrom social perspectives, the alignment of the components of SEE has the ability to enhance and shift the entrepreneurial mindset of entrepreneurship students, notwithstanding enhancement of intentionality and self-efficacy.Originality/valueThis is the first study of SEEs in Australia, highlighting the importance of the integration of entrepreneurship education programs, entrepreneurship education ecosystems, the entrepreneurial university and specific start-up initiatives such as university accelerators. Furthermore, students may enhance their entrepreneurial mindset by actively engaging in such ecosystems.

The article analyzes the educational ecosystem in the context of the strategic development of education. The purpose of the article is to study the experience of implementing the ecosystem approach while organizing the educational process in accordance with the challenges of the emerging information society. The article presents the basic features of the educational ecosystem and briefly describes the major changes in educational activities: the integrative nature of the content of teaching methods and tools; adaptability, co-evolution of the environment and its subjects; the theory of connectivism dwelling upon learning in the digital age. Referring to the research by V.L. Kvint and O.E. Permyakov, the authors conclude that the ecosystem approach is an essential factor for the strategic development of education. In their research, N.V. Dyorina, L.I. Savva, N.I. Rabina identified the peculiarities of forming the university innovative ecosystems. Particular attention is paid to the ideas of S. Panda on methods for studying the digital footprint of students and the use of cluster analysis of the obtained data for taking the managerial decisions. A paradigm approach, the theory of strategizing and learning models in the context of digital transformation were used during the analysis of the ecosystem approach to the educational system. The analysis of various research positions led to the conclusion that the transformation of the educational environment of a university into an eco-educational one is a comprehensive problem; its solution is in the development of an appropriate theory of education and of a corresponding eco-educational model. The article has considerable practical value because it contains recommendations and suggests approaches that can be taken into account when modernizing educational activities in higher education institutions: a step-by-step transition to the implementation of changes is necessary through the strategic planning of the development of structures and processes in the educational ecosystem of the university with the help of digital innovative technologies used for education and educational management.

Transforming Entrepreneurship Education

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

With entrepreneurship education receiving growing attention in research and practice the question arises what exactly entrepreneurship education’s impact is and should be. There is a lack of discussion on what (different kinds of) entrepreneurship education should aim to achieve, and how entrepreneurship education’s success can be captured. In this chapter, we raise the question: What is relevant for generating which kind of entrepreneurial activity? We call for a stronger competence orientation, underline the importance of an entrepreneurship education ecosystem, and carve out the need for future research in these fields.
