Valencies of the University of Entrepreneuriality in The Matrix of Sustainable Economy: Challenges and Opportunities
Abstract
The objectives of the study refer first and foremost to establishing the role of universities to become a potential agent for change towards sustainability. The research analysis allowed us to explore whether:
- Stefan cel Mare University offered students the opportunity to develop skills that allowed them to actively respond to entrepreneurial challenges;
- To what extent students are involved in activities related to the entrepreneurial development offered by the university;
- The research of the most desired skills by the business environment from the students' point of view will enrich the empirical analysis. I undertook an exploratory research, the results of which we processed using SPSS v.20.
The research results have practical implications for universities and can support the advancement of educational programs related to sustainable development.
