Abstract

Argued is, that commercialization of technical creativity could be supported in former Soviet countries through integration of engineering and business education in technical universities to involve students specializing in engineering in industrial entrepreneurship. Such integration already exists in the Western countries, and could be realized in Belarus and the Ukraine. Survey of engineering students of BNTU (Minsk, Belarus) and NTUU “I. Sikorsky KPI” (Kiev, Ukraine) showed, that quarter of respondents have high level of motivation to get entrepreneurial knowledge and skills. The article also argues, that in order to develop civilized industrial business, technical universities should educate future engineers-businessmen to be cultured people and responsible citizens.
