Abstract
This study investigates the beneficial outcomes of integrating Entrepreneurially Minded Learning (EML) across non-entrepreneurial subjects within higher education. In a rapidly evolving global landscape characterized by technological advancements and complex societal challenges, there is a pressing need to embed entrepreneurial principles in diverse academic disciplines. The motivation for this research stems from the potential of EML to enhance students’ employability, foster innovative thinking, and equip them with essential skills for the 21st-century workforce.
Employing a systematic literature review, this research analyzes existing studies on the application of EML across various subjects outside its traditional domain of business education. The review involved identifying relevant literature, applying stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria, and conducting a thematic analysis of the selected studies.
The findings reveal significant benefits of EML integration, including enhanced employability, increased student engagement, and notable learning gains. This research contributes to the academic discourse by synthesizing scattered evidence on the impact of EML across disciplines, offering a consolidated view of its potential benefits. It provides a foundation for educators and policymakers to develop informed strategies for embedding entrepreneurial pedagogy within diverse educational contexts.
