Abstract
The integration of entrepreneurship education has changed the university’s role by creating a bridge between university and industry. This combination also changed the structure of the university, its strategy, and the orientation of the outcome learning from traditional learning practice to entrepreneurial learning practice. The public university is facing now an internationalization environment, especially with the privatization of the higher education sector. In addressing this research gap, this paper provides a case study of Algerian public universities. The authors use a qualitative interview with teachers implicated in the process of integration of entrepreneurship from intention to incubation. Thus, the paper offers insights into how the university enables actors to address the challenge of internal factors and external factors to help and facilitate integration of entrepreneurship culture among university. Our contribution is to present a model of the integration of entrepreneurship education within the Algerian public university.
