With the ever-changing demands of the modern world, acquiring an entrepreneurial mindset will make a long way, especially for the young generation. Imagine if all the USTP students can inculcate within themselves the characteristics of entrepreneurs: they will become more adaptive to change, can take initiative, bring about creative solutions, and be comfortable with risks. Then, it becomes easy to visualize the bright future that our region will attain.

To realize that vision, the University must also invest in its human resources—its faculty. As the front-liners in the implementation of the trifocal functions of the USTP, especially on instruction, it is vital that the University ensures that its faculty are fully equipped with the right and updated knowledge and skills in teaching the entrepreneurial courses that the USTP offers. The faculty members have the capacity to directly influence the education that the University provides. Therefore, it is imperative that necessary support is provided to the University’s educators for effective delivery of our functions.
