The model of an agrarian entrepreneurial university

Abstract

This paper considers the implementation of the Strategy for the development of the agrobusiness of the Sverdlovsk region. The conclusion is confirmed concerning insufficient development of the business environment in the agrarian sector. Approaches and methods of transformation of the classical agrarian university into an entrepreneurial one on the example of the Ural State Agrarian University are discussed: knowledge generation, teaching and translation of knowledge into practice; reshaping of the university's internal environment; modification of interactions with the external environment developing the university's innovation environment. The results of the project and their significance are predicted: the creation of a modern system of educational, scientific and design-entrepreneurial environment. New educational products will be developed. A set of indicators and marks of compliance of the agrarian university to the entrepreneurial type will be introduced. The uniqueness of this project has been found. The thing is that the Ural State Agrarian University is not a classical or purely technical university and this expands its ability to enter various areas of the region's life: economic, social and technological. The article concludes that the implementation of the project will meet the needs of the agriculture cluster of the Sverdlovsk region in the development of intellectual entrepreneurship and avoid primitive mechanisms of collection and independent implementation of their agricultural products by residents. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
