Entrepreneurship Courses in Spatial Management Studies in Polish Universities

The paper refers the results of analyses focused on the role played by entrepreneurship-related concepts and ideas in the structure of spatial management studies curricula in the light of the current entries in the national qualifications frameworks in higher education. The analysis was performed for 1st degree (bachelor's degree and engineering) and 2nd degree (master's degree) studies offered by various higher education institutions in Poland, and specifically, universities which form the Union of Universities in Support for Developing Spatial Management Studies. All the academic institutions covered by the research included studies in entrepreneurship or related topics in their curricula. The authors observed that their educational offer in the analysed domain was dependent on the level and type of studies and was the broadest in case of bachelor and master's degree studies but not so broad in case of engineering studies. Furthermore, a relationship between the scope of such offer and the profile of the university offering the spatial management studies was established.
