Abstract
Teaching entrepreneurship is an important mission of academic education. The digital age calls for digital skills of potential entrepreneurs. The potential of especially female entrepreneurs need to be exploited. To develop an ability to deal with entrepreneurial opportunities requires a transformation of didactics, pedagogy, and the university context. The EqualDigitalent initiative drafted and tested a master curriculum to foster entrepreneurship and digital skills in academic education under diversity aspects. Results of a four-step learning evaluation process are provided as well as improvement opportunities and learnings are derived. A distinct focus of this paper is to show comprehensive results and indications for possible adaptions of the overall master curriculum. For example, group projects increased students' ICT skills as well as their ability to work in heterogeneous work. Starting points for similar initiatives and future research directions are deduced.
