Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to identify broad themes that are pertinent to the study of entrepreneurship in Canadian higher education institutions. Fifty-one peer-reviewed papers formed the theoretical corpus of our qualitative analysis. We employed co-occurrence of keywords to identify research themes that appeared in our corpus. Keywords that occur together most frequently were extracted and grouped into clusters, with each cluster representing a theme. We used VOSviewer 1.6.10 for our analysis. The five themes extracted are: integration with business education, adopting a global approach, academic research in entrepreneurship, robust education policy, and educational innovation. We discuss the implications for entrepreneurship education.
Keywords: Canada, higher education, entrepreneurship, bibliometric analysis, VOSviewer.
