An entrepreneurial training model to enhance undergraduate training in biomedical research

BackgroundUndergraduate students who are interested in biomedical research typically work on a faculty member’s research project, conduct one distinct task (e.g., running gels), and, step by step, enhance their skills. This “apprenticeship” model has been helpful in training many distinguished scientists over the years, but it has several potential drawbacks. For example, the students have limited autonomy, and may not understand the big picture, which may result in students giving up on their goals for a research career. Also, the model is costly and may greatly depend on a single mentor.Key highlightsThe NIH Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity (BUILD) Initiative has been established to fund innovative undergraduate research training programs and support institutional and faculty development of the recipient university. The training model at Morgan State University (MSU), namely “A Student-Centered Entrepreneurship Development training model” (ASCEND), is one of the 10 NIH BUILD-funded programs, and offers a novel, experimental “entrepreneurial” training approach. In the ASCEND training model, the students take the lead. They own the research, understand the big picture, and experience the entire scope of the research process, which we hypothesize will lead to a greater sense of self-efficacy and research competency, as well as an enhanced sense of science identity. They are also immersed in environments with substantial peer support, where they can exchange research ideas and share experiences. This is important for underrepresented minority students who might have fewer role models and less peer support in conducting research.ImplicationsIn this article, we describe the MSU ASCEND entrepreneurial training model’s components, rationale, and history, and how it may enhance undergraduate training in biomedical research that may be of benefit to other institutions. We also discuss evaluation methods, possible sustainability solutions, and programmatic challenges that can affect all types of science training interventions.

The Entrepreneurial Competency Index: An Assessment Tool for Financial Institutions

The conventional techniques used by financial institutions to ensure the success of business ventures are lopsided in that they focus exclusively on venture-specific aspects and tend to completely ignore person-specific factors.

However, the findings of this study, he suggests, need to be tested and validated by future research.

What Creates an Entrepreneur? Some Observations from a Micro Study

Much has been written about the role of entrepreneurship development programmes (EDPs) in creating a new class of entrepreneurs. Very few studies, however, have tried to scan small enterprises at the local level to look for the possible sources of entrepreneurship, and thus validate and establish the claims made by the supporters of entrepreneurship develop ment training. The author of this paper attempts to fill in the vacuum using observations from a micro level study from the State of Karnataka, India. The author argues that an entrepreneur's practical experience in or exposure to entrepreneurial activities is important for the success of small ventures.

Entrepreneurship development training programmes in India

It has been argued by David McClelland that the levels of growth which a country attains are explained by the presence or absence of a 'need for achievement' ('n Ach') in the population. Since this need for achievement can be developed and reinforced, growth can be accelerated by influencing the behaviour and supply of a country's entrepreneurs. One can debate the issue raised by van Arkady that 'theories that emphasize deep-seated psychological or cultural characteristics do not seem particularly relevant for policy, as these variables are unlikely to be subject to policy influence over any useful time horizon.' Indian entrepreneurship development training programmes (EDTPs), being the first and most widely replicated, have the potential to exemplify McClelland's theory and to demonstrate effective ways of enhancing entrepreneurship through policy intervention.The objective of this paper is to present a synoptic view of EDTPs in India. It focuses on training processes and procedures as they currently exist and offers some suggestions for their improvement. The first section discusses the evolution and scope of the Indian EDTPs, and the specialized agencies which conduct them. The second section describes the Indian EDTP package, followed by an evaluation. A limitation of this paper is that it does not address the debate on the comparative efficiency of the 'training-alone approach' vis-à-vis the 'training-plus approach'. Another limitation is that it is based on the author's observations rather than rigorous scientific evaluation. Unfortunately, the vast literature on Indian EDTPs does not include any scientific evaluation.
