Abstract

This paper deals with the research and practice of entrepreneurship education reform. More specific it presents the experience of the Wenzhou University in China as a case in point for discussing how to establish the entrepreneurship education system. The main argument is that entrepreneurship education in University should not result as an application of policy initiatives only related to increase the employment rate of graduates. It should be part of a more general discussion related to educational priorities and of a strategic design of University talents training plan in order to provide students with entrepreneurial and management skills that will enhance their profile in the future career.
