Abstract

This chapter sets out the design of a proposed study to identify entrepreneurship threshold concepts using a novel combination of Transactional Curriculum Inquiry and a Delphi-style approach to engage key stakeholders. The planned study responds to calls for more research into the role of universities in developing entrepreneurial mindsets in graduates, and acknowledges the context of entrepreneurship as an academic discipline of disputed legitimacy. The innovative methods proposed are potentially transferable to other academic disciplines.
