The present study aims to investigate the barriers of industry-university connectivity from systemic point of view and entrepreneurship at the Esfarayn High School. The research population consisted of 53 faculty members of Esfarayn High School. In this research, due to the limited size of the community, the sample is equal to the community and is used in the census method. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data. Its validity was confirmed and its reliability was confirmed by 87% on the basis of Cronbach's alphabet. For analyzing the data, binomial test was used and Friedman test was used for ranking the barriers. The results of the analysis showed that the components of systemic vision including rules and regulations, research, education and administrative and executive mechanisms were identified as effective obstacles for the faculty members of Esfarayne University. From entrepreneurship point of view, components of entrepreneurial culture, entrepreneurial leadership and flexibility were considered as barriers, and the component of rewards was not considered as a barrier to them. Finally, the weaknesses in the relationship between industry and university were investigated in the context of the pathology of the relationship between industry and university, and strategies were introduced for better communication between the industry and the university.
