As entrepreneurship become more and more important in today’s society, there is an increasingly demand of entrepreneurial education in some universities. However, as Thomas Lawrence, Nelson Phillips, & Paul Tracey say in their blog “Entrepreneurship education”, which I read recently, there are two big challenges: “1) to develop a solid understanding of precisely what social entrepreneurs and innovators actually do, and therefore, what they need to know, and 2) to identify the best ways to organize courses and what to include in terms of course content.”

I strongly agree with these two problems and come up with some improvements.

First, universities should set up entrepreneurship courses to students not only from business schools but also from other faculties. It can give enough opportunities for students who are interested in entrepreneur and it can enhance students’ knowledge of entrepreneur as well as raise their awareness of entrepreneur.

Second, universities should promote the concept of innovation via e-mails, posters and activities. Universities should also encourage students’ innovation for the school and society. It is the high time for students to develop their innovation in universities.

Third, it is important to offer students opportunities to practise what they learn in entrepreneurial education. For example, students can establish their own entrepreneur in universities.
