Abstract :

Entrepreneurial skills are considered as an important mechanism of entrepreneurship development. One of the preconditions for national development is scientific and research development, in which higher education has a major role in this development, and without it, we can not talk about scientific development. Therefore, universities have a fundamental and irreplaceable role and function as the scientific and intellectual command tower of the society. This research is practical in terms of purpose and quantitative in terms of data collection method. The statistical population is 75 professors, specialists and experts in the field of entrepreneurship in Islamic Azad universities, of which 63 were selected as a sample by simple random sampling. PLS and SPSS software were used for analysis. Therefore, in order to evaluate the reliability of the research measurement model, factor load coefficients, Cronbach's alpha coefficients and combined reliability, convergent validity and divergent validity were used. The results show that the linear relationships between the variables have been confirmed and due to the increasing rate of change and emergence of the knowledge age, the wave of future research in political, economic, social and technological institutions has expanded and is in line with societal developments to create the future. Desirable and long-term policy-making and planning of the university system, the future of research in higher education, has become necessary.
