Abstract

Entrepreneurship development in Islamic higher education, particularly within Islamic Educational Management study programs, has become a strategic necessity in responding to the demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the dynamics of the global economy. This study aims to analyze the challenges and identify implementation strategies for integrating entrepreneurship education into the Islamic Educational Management curriculum. The study employed a qualitative approach using content analysis of scholarly literature, educational policy documents, and relevant research findings on entrepreneurship development in Islamic higher education. The data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and conclusion drawing to identify key themes related to implementation challenges and strategies. The findings reveal that the major challenges include the limited availability of human resources with entrepreneurial competencies, inadequate infrastructural support, weak partnerships with business and industrial sectors, and institutional cultures that remain oriented toward conventional academic paradigms. Furthermore, the study identifies several effective implementation strategies, including the development of an entrepreneurship-based curriculum, the application of project-based learning and experiential learning approaches, the strengthening of digital competencies, and the integration of Islamic business ethics into the learning process. The findings underscore that the successful integration of entrepreneurship education requires strong institutional policies, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and visionary leadership to establish a sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystem within Islamic higher education. This study contributes to the development of an implementation framework for entrepreneurship education within the Islamic Educational Management curriculum.
