The findings of this thesis may be valuable for future research on internships in
entrepreneurship educations. There are a number of avenues to continue researching. One possibility is to look at participants before and after having participated at Gründerskolen and compare mindsets and proficiency levels. This approach will result in more confidence when concluding what the effects of Gründerskolen are on each individual participant.
Another option is to do a study where the researcher looks at participants at Gründerskolen from when it first started in 1999 up to today. It would be interesting to see how many students have entered into entrepreneurship or innovation related jobs, or why some students chose to pursue traditional careers. This approach would reveal the long-term effects of Gründerskolen.

It could also be interesting to do similar studies on comparable entrepreneurship programs to Gründerskolen, to see if the findings are confirmed at different universities in different countries and across different settings.
