Postsecondary support for entrepreneurship

From Industry Canada: The Teaching and Practice of Entrepreneurship within Canadian Higher Education Institutions, December 2010
"Overall, the survey shows Canadian higher education institutions are actively involved in offering entrepreneurship education as well as in providing a network of practitioners and the necessary facilities to support students interested in entrepreneurship... However, having an overall objective to deliver entrepreneurship education within an institution was absent in over two thirds of responding institutions. In most cases, entrepreneurship education was offered in only one or two (principally business and engineering) faculties. While institutions do make efforts to motivate and support entrepreneurship opportunities on campus, less than one third of surveyed institutions had an objective to deliver entrepreneurship opportunities to students in all faculties."
