Abstract

The article discusses the role of English universities in producing enterprise and employment opportunities for economic growth in Great Britain. It cites how universities in the U.S. are referred to as "anchor institutions" because of their role in creating jobs, attracting business, and forming community links. In comparison, public sector cuts in Great Britain are reported to lead to an increase in graduate unemployment. Focus on enterprise, skills and links with local businesses is advised.
