Entrepreneurship is defined in different fields with definitions ranging
from a specific perspective such as starting a business to a broader
perspective such as a process of establishing new social, economic,
environmental, institutional, cultural and/or scientific environments.
There has been some movement toward entrepreneurship in STEM education
through hackathons and makerspaces, but they tend to be limited to
informal settings. In higher education, there seems to be a border line
between business schools and education departments. This book aims to
remove the borders between the Business Schools and the Department of
Education and help Business Schools to develop their educational
practices further and help Education Departments to develop their
knowledge of entrepreneurship from its formal discipline.
The purpose of this book is to bring together experts from STEM
education and the formal discipline of entrepreneurship to explore the
role of STEM in everyday life through an entrepreneurial lens and show
how this integration can broaden STEM education practices.
