Abstract: Abstract The current status and context of entrepreneurship education in Europe shows a rich diversity of teaching methods, approaches, and strategies in delivering and managing entrepreneurship training in higher education. In an effort to capture a fraction of this diversity, this book comprises a compilation of 20 cases of European higher education institutions and their entrepreneurial activities in 19 countries. The chapter at hand introduces the background and selection of these cases. It provides a structural overview alongside the three main pillars of curricular, extra-curricular, and institutional aspects of teaching entrepreneurship.
