“…It implies a mixed longitudinal approach that allows capturing objective as well as subjective measures for a better understanding of this phenomenon. It is also aligned with the academic debate about the lack of studies concerning strategic knowledge management models for entrepreneurial universities (Guerrero et al , 2019b and Secundo et al , 2019), as well as understanding the technological, economic and societal contribution of entrepreneurial ecosystems (Audretsch et al , 2019).…”

“…However, there are still gaps regarding the direct/moderation/mediation effect of multiple contexts on academic entrepreneurship (Autio et al , 2014; Herrera et al , 2018; Good et al , 2019). Besides, there is the academic debate about the strategic management of entrepreneurial universities (Guerrero et al , 2019b; Secundo et al , 2019).…”

PurposeThis paper provides insights about how graduates' career patterns (i.e. academic entrepreneur, self-employed or paid employed) are influenced by entrepreneurial university ecosystems (i.e. incubators and entrepreneurship education programs).Design/methodology/approachBy adopting Douglas and Shepherd's utility-maximising function, the influence of one entrepreneurial university ecosystem on graduates' career choices was tested using a sample of 11,512 graduates from the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (ITESM) in Mexico.FindingsOur results show the critical role of entrepreneurial universities ecosystems in facilitating employability options as academic entrepreneurship for ITESM's graduates. The study shows some insights about how graduates' risk aversion and work effort are positively influenced by the university business incubator and entrepreneurship education programs, respectively.Practical implicationsDiverse implications for stakeholders have emerged from our results. These implications are associated with potential benefits of implementing programmes oriented to engage academic entrepreneurship within Latin American universities.Originality/valueEntrepreneurial universities provide a range of employability alternatives for their students, such as to be self-employed, academic entrepreneurs or paid employees. In this scenario, entrepreneurial universities have configured entrepreneurial ecosystems (educational programmes, business incubators and other infrastructures) to support potential entrepreneurs (students, academics, staff and alumni). Despite the relevance of the environmental conditions on individuals' occupational choices, few studies have explored the role of the entrepreneurial university ecosystems on graduates' employability. In this vein, our study contributes to some academic discussions: (1) the role of context on career choice models (Ilouga et al., 2014; Sieger and Monsen, 2015), (2) the role of incubators and entrepreneurship education on fostering academic entrepreneurship on the graduates' community (Nabi et al., 2017; Good et al., 2019; Guerrero and Urbano, 2019a) and (3) the effectiveness of the entrepreneurial university ecosystems on graduates' employability (Herrera et al., 2018; Wright et al., 2017).

“…The entrepreneurial ecosystem includes a large and diversified number of stakeholders providing a valuable contribution to the entrepreneurial development process ( Elia et al., 2020 ; Elia et al., 2011 ; Ndou et al., 2018 ; Secundo et al., 2019 a; Secundo et al., 2019 b). Digital technologies can support the interaction of students with stakeholders during seminars, mentoring activities, project development sessions, demonstrations, and debates, with the final aim to make the education experience more effective and attractive.…”

This paper aims to present a multiple criteria decision model that supports faculty recruitment for business schools in the post-COVID-19 era. The greatest challenge that business schools are facing is to identify relevant criteria for faculty recruitment that can help to sustain their activities in today's highly competitive and international market. Also, these criteria should be in line with the increased focus on faculty qualification by the 2020 Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) standards.
