Engaging in the pursuit of your own ideas and then turn them into a successful business is a highly satisfying pursuit. Entrepreneurship allows people to create careers that are directly in line with their personal values, such as helping others or preserving the environment, and thereby bring a psychological and emotional satisfaction that other jobs can’t.
Entrepreneurship is a social issue, which involves complex interactions between humans and the social context in which they live, play, and learn. Therefore, it is often considered an important area of study for the social sciences. It also is an ukpip.org/generated-post/ interdisciplinary field that draws upon the disciplines of sociology, management, law as well as anthropology, public policy and not-for-profit management.
We present the research on entrepreneurial learning for non-business students within this article and propose a framework to guide current research based on four dimensions of learning through social networks – observational-learning, the role played by peers and mentors as well as the entrepreneurial ecosystem as a platform to social-learning, as well as the impact of institutions. We further discuss how this framework can be utilized in a more systematic way to guide research and development of education for entrepreneurs in the near future. We also present an in-depth bibliometric analysis supported by VOSviewer and Bibliometrix which reveals the most prominent authors, organizations and countries, seminar papers journals, topics, and seminar articles. This gives a complete and thorough understanding of the state of the field. The analysis also gives information on future research areas and knowledge gaps.
