Abstract

This article explores the triggers and barriers of business start-ups amongst business students at two British and two Chinese universities. It presents the similarities and differences in students' entrepreneurial transition in terms of exploring start-up as a career option between the four universities. It helps to further understand the transitions into student entrepreneurship for further research into establishing an educational framework to encourage more students' start-ups. It also discusses the impact of enterprise education in both the UK and China. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
