Abstract

Universities are one of the main elements of current notion of development since they are the institutions that produce the knowledge. They also hold a significant position in social and economic development in addition to their conventional roles of education and research. In this sense, they are expected to support sustainable development on local, regional and national basis through conducting research in cooperation with industrial establishments. Because producing professionals of the future is an important activity related to sustainability. In terms of sustainable development, intellectual capital and strategic management are two essentials to create a vision for the future. In the study, Süleyman Demirel University, which started in a small town in 1976 with only 40 students and has expanded to 50,000 students today, was discussed in terms of its developmental influence on Isparta and its surroundings. The implementations of intellectual capital and strategic management that originated this development were described as a model. Keywords: Sustainable Development, Strategic Management, Intellectual Capital, Entrepreneurial University.
