=== Cultural Pathways - Fostering entrepreneurship ===
Beyond the academic pathways, UTS fosters a culture of creativity through the UTS Innovation & Entrepreneurship Unit. This unit seeks to bridge research and entrepreneurship through a strong focus on research commercialization. The unit sits physically next to the business school and offers startup spaces to support hatchling entrepreneurs. The I&E unit supports with [https://www.uts.edu.au/startup-internships internships]; short courses and [https://www.uts.edu.au/partners-and-community/initiatives/entrepreneurship/programs-and-opportunities/uts-entrepreneurship toolkits] (including ‘Design Thinking for Researchers’ and open access courses); [https://www.uts.edu.au/partners-and-community/initiatives/entrepreneurship/programs-and-opportunities/entrepreneurialentrepreneurial student societies] and industry connection opportunities ([https://www.uts.edu.au/partners-and-community/initiatives/entrepreneurship/programs-and-opportunities/hackathons hackathons], workshops, camps and mentorship).
The core of the unit is [https://www.uts.edu.au/uts-startups UTS Startups], an incubator focused on mentoring and supporting students and recent alumni with startups. UTS Startups is open to students from all faculties and degree types, but most students come from Engineering and IT as well as Business. This is supported by recent research which found that 44% of UTS undergraduate students (2018) believe that they are likely or very likely to join a start-up and 34% state that they are likely or very likely to start a business.The following chart highlights the growing culture of embedding entrepreneurship culture within universities in Australia in an effort to support budding entrepreneurship in their innovative ideas. There are over 160 incubators, accelerators and pre-accelerators in Australia, however these remain expensive and therefore UTS seeks to promote a culture of entrepreneurship by embedding such thinking in coursework and existing degree programs alongside the startup community.
These hackathons not only stimulate innovation in the students, it develops and grows innovation in the Industries that the hackathon is partnered with.
The following is a list of selected Industry based Hackathons run at UTS in the last 2 months that cross university disciplines.
