To this end, the present study has reviewed and analyzed strategically in this field using the new three-branch model TOPSIS-SWOT-FIFs and presented related strategies on the Vision of 2025. In the strategic studies section, experts in the field of sports sciences as members of the strategic council (11 people), and in the quantitative section, all faculty members and staffs (40 people) formed the present research community. The findings of the present study are the result of the efforts of more than 100 people-hours of the research community and include 14 macro strategies and 65 strategic actions in 4 axes of growth and development. In this regard, it seems that in order to be a leader in the fourth generation universities and also to achieve its mission, the development of an executive model of strategies can be the first step to achieve the developed vision.

Data collection was through in-depth and semi-structured interviews, which reached theoretical saturation after 16 interviews. To measure validity, transferability and verifiability, research findings were presented to the participants and their points of view were applied. The intra-subject agreement method was used for reliability, which was reported as 0.82. The findings related to effective factors indicated 68 main concepts and 5 subcategories(Employment skills, curriculum, needs assessment, sports industry development, motivation and support) and the findings related to effective barriers indicated 27 main concepts and 5 subcategories(policy and planning, economic and financial, legal, technological, cultural and social).Therefore, Paying attention to the quality of the employability skills of sports science students, including personal, technical and professional, general skills and coordination between higher education policies, employment, science, technology and economy are of great importance.

The research method of the present study was descriptive of correlation type and based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the research included undergraduate students of universities in Tehran province including (Tehran, Shahid Beheshti, Khawarzmi, Al-Zahra, Allameh Tabatiai) in the academic year 1401-1402, of which 400 people were selected using stratified random sampling. The tools of this research included university climate questionnaires (Lasage and Frank, 2004), entrepreneurial skills (Linan, 2008) and entrepreneurial intention (Linan and Chen, 2009). The data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling method. The findings showed that the variable of faculty atmosphere had a positive and significant effect on the variables of entrepreneurial intention and skill, and the variable of entrepreneurial skill had a positive and significant effect on the variable of entrepreneurial intention. The atmosphere of universities can be a platform for the development of entrepreneurial skills and capabilities of people, and this factor increases their entrepreneurial intention with the effect it has on people's skills in the field of entrepreneurial capabilities.
