Abstract: 
The paper presents an evaluation model for measuring innovative universities in the direction of employing innovation for improving university functions performance (education, research, internationalization, management, competitiveness, human progress, technology transfer, science advancement). The model is based on a literature review over current diverse educational challenges and an analysis of the prospective educational innovations in the near future. The model summarizes 19 groups of educational innovations which aim at assessing the performance of universities when it comes to innovation management. The paper contributes with generalizing the innovation driven paths for universities and provides a tool for assessment of their innovativeness.
