This study contributes to entrepreneurship education within electrical, electronic and computer (EEC) engineering curricula by providing a comprehensive overview of the teaching methodologies and assessment designs currently employed by educators. We explore the challenges faced by both EEC engineering educators and students in entrepreneurship education. This study is motivated by the need to understand the landscape of entrepreneurship education within EEC engineering curricula. This will benefit those who are starting an entrepreneurship course or reflecting on their course design and delivery. The following research questions are examined in this study: Is the need for entrepreneurship education in EEC engineering curricula based on development of soft skills and/or economic need?; What teaching methods are used within entrepreneurship teaching for EEC engineering students?; How are the students assessed within EEC engineering entrepreneurship education? Does EEC engineering entrepreneurship education vary based on country?; What challenges do students encounter participating in EEC engineering entrepreneurship?; What challenges do educators encounter in delivering EEC engineering entrepreneurship?; This study adopted a systematic literature review approach. The findings revealed that project-based learning is the most popular method of curriculum delivery along with lectures, while, a business plan, pitch, and prototype product are common components in assessment. The study also highlighted the United States of America as being well established in this field compared to other countries. The administrative challenge to educators was discussed but there are new opportunities, such as experiential based learning, which has started to be adopted. |
