Greetings, fellow scholars! I am an academic at Deakin University Melbourne Australia who is interested in studying entrepreneurship education for students outside of the business discipline. I believe that such education can equip students with valuable skills and knowledge that can benefit them in various fields, and I would like to explore how to deliver it effectively.
- I am looking for collaborators from other universities who share my interest and would like to join me in this research endeavour. Specifically, I am interested in studying the following topics:
- The current state of entrepreneurship education for non-business students
- The learning outcomes of entrepreneurship education for non-business students
- The most effective approaches and tools to deliver entrepreneurship education to non-business students
- The impact of entrepreneurship education for non-business students on their career choices and outcomes
If you are a scholar who has experience or interest in any of these topics, please reach out to me. I believe that a collaborative effort can yield valuable insights and contributions to the field of entrepreneurship education.
I can be touched at [email protected] Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Jack
Hi Jack li ,
As an ex-ICT practitioner and entrepreneur turned academic, I have some independent views on entrepreneurship education which are not mainstream. I firmly believe there are skills within a broader definition of enterprise education that are worth teaching across disciplines.
Happy to exchange some thoughts. To give you a flavour of where I am coming from, I have a conference paper from last year on the link...

Hi David Atkinson ,
Thanks for sharing the paper. It seems that you try to introduce situational awareness into entrepreneurship education, in which students adopt the required knowledge and skills to solve problems around them. At the same time, students can build their skills in entrepreneurship for various benefits. In general, I agree with you, as my teaching philosophy is "personalized education, work-integrated training and lifelong learning".
Compared with business students, I think ICT students have the skills to solve problems around them, through which, to reshape many industries. To this end, they are potential entrepreneurs. However, they lack entrepreneurial skills and experience, which may prevent them from creating businesses. At the School of IT, Deakin makes entrepreneurship a core unit. It is a relatively new unit for ICT students. I hope to deliver the unit with the most appropriate contents, and methodologies for the best learning outcomes and experiences.
Regards,
Jack

I am pleased to provide an update on our recent advancements in the realm of research. A comprehensive case study was undertaken at Deakin University, focusing on the assessment of IT entrepreneurship education's pedagogical impact. The insights gleaned from this study have notably contributed to the refinement of our curriculum for the upcoming T1 2023 term. Furthermore, I am delighted to inform you that the outcomes of this endeavour have been thoughtfully incorporated into the proceedings of ACM SIGITE 2023.
