“…Trencher et al (2013) note that such forms of education stress creativity, innovation and divergent thinking as critical means to enable students to implement novel practices. Brenner and Pflitsch (2017) have examined why research on sustainability is reinforced in some places and not in others. Using a multimethod approach they find that the intrinsic motivation of individual scientists serves as the strongest explanation.…”

“…This study also contributes to the literature on entrepreneurial universities as a particular type of multi-actor organization: a university in which campus management personnel, faculty members and students each play a role in initiating institutional change. While the role of organizational leadership has received some attention in previous studies (Brenner and Pflitsch, 2017;Radinger-Peer and Pflitsch, 2017), the role of students as agents of change (other than through the formation of new (student) start-ups (Boh et al, 2016;Wright et al, 2017)) has thus far been overlooked in the literature on entrepreneurial universities. We show however that their role can be of crucial important to involving external stakeholders in processes of change.…”

“…Radinger-Peer and Pflitsch (2017) concentrate on another aspect of HEIs' third mission and study the contribution of HEIs to the regional transition towards sustainability. Brenner and Pflitsch (2017) look at the opposite causal direction and examine whether research at HEIs -in this case research on sustainability -is influenced by local circumstances. While sustainability was originally a rather politically developed and propagated concept, it has become a central issue in many disciplines in the meantime.…”
