Framing a European model of entrepreneurship education

This chapter comprises the results of an exhaustive field analysis of undergraduate and postgraduate entrepreneurship programs in the European single market. As part of this analysis, the following aspects are identified: the areas with the highest concentration of university courses, the types of courses, the most popular subjects, the support of venture capital hubs and incubators, and the number of student entrepreneurs who have emerged from the courses in question. A multiple case analysis approach is used to build a framework concerning the practices of entrepreneurship programs in the EU. The analysis focuses on course structures, teaching approaches to entrepreneurship subjects, relationships with accelerators and hubs, international mobility, and the enhancement of students’ soft skills.
