This research is applied and developmental in terms of goal, and descriptive, survey and correlation in terms of data collection, hypothesis testing and conclusion. The population of this research contains two groups: first, 50 masters and elites from the selected universities in the field of academic entrepreneurship who have been selected by the method of census to identify the above-mentioned constraints and fitness of the final model; and second 1300 chancellors and vice-chancellors of higher-level education system in seven provinces out of which around 297 people have been selected through clustered random sampling to examine the identified constraints in their statistical populations. The instrument to collect data was questionnaire. Data analysis has been done by confirmatory exploratory factor analysis and the software such as LISERAL, SPSS and EXCELL. The results of data analysis show that the localized model of academic entrepreneurship constraints and obstacles in higher-level education system of Iran contains three main individual constraints, organizational constraints and environmental constraints. In addition the obtained coefficients dealing with the fitness of the model proves that this localized model fitness and validity.
