Last week I found out that a project I am involved with was successful in bidding for ¥180,000 of funding from the China National Social Science Fund for Education. The funding will support a three-year investigation into the impact of entrepreneurship education on the entrepreneurial mindset of undergraduates in China. The project is led by Jun Cun from the Southeast University in Nanjing and I will be involved as a foreign expert.
Jun is currently finishing a visiting research role at the University of Oxford, so we were able to meet up in Worcester to discuss the start of the project in person before he returned to China. I am looking forward to being involved in the project and disseminating the results in the coming years. The funding will help to support the collection of a large and comprehensive dataset, to further explore this relatively under researched topic.
