Abstract
This article aims to analyze the productions in scientific journals of international bases, in English, Portuguese or Spanish, about entrepreneurial university and third mission, focusing on the productions of Brazilian authors, through a systematic search of the literature. For that, we use the SSF - Systematic Search Flow method, which is applied in systematic and integrative reviews. An enterprising university, committed to the development of its region, is the key factor in achieving regional innovation, a key institution in knowledge-based societies. In the age of knowledge, the university is as important as industry and government; fundamental for the development of knowledge and innovation. As a result, we identified research challenges and opportunities, contributing to the construction of a panorama of Brazilian scientific production in international journals on the themes entrepreneurial university and third mission.
Highlights
Nowadays, the university faces several challenges, among them, the questioning of its role and its actions, besides teaching, that is, its capacity of approaching the community, in terms of research and extension
In the Brazilian context, the principle of inseparability teaching-research-extension constitutes the fundamental axis of the university, which should contribute to the approximation between university and society. (Albulescu et al, 2014)
According to Shapin (2012): The notion of the Ivory Tower became part of twentieth- and twenty-first-century cultural vocabularies, especially in the 1930s and 1940s, in which it became a common term attached to universities and to features of science and in which it became a way of criticizing practices and institutions deemed to be ‘irrelevant’ (p. 1)
Summary
The university faces several challenges, among them, the questioning of its role and its actions, besides teaching, that is, its capacity of approaching the community, in terms of research and extension. Etzkowitz (2017) establishes two revolutions: the first refers to the legitimation of research activities and the second, highlights a scenario in which academia is urged to conduct a creative function for economic and social development, characterizing the entrepreneurial university!
