The implications of entrepreneurship education on the careers of PhDs: evidence from the challenge-based learning approach

We analysed the academic and business outcomes of 73 PhDs who attended an entrepreneurial education program, co-designed by two universities in collaboration with an international research center, in the last five years, and compared these results against 73 PhDs who did not attend the program. We b...
