Abstract

This paper presents the first approaches to Education for Entrepreneurship (EE) in Entrepreneurial Intent (EI) using an ex-ante and ex-post survey. A quantitative quasi-experimental design study was carried out for this purpose. Data were collected using an instrument adapted from Miranda et al. (2017) from a sample of 71 students from a Peruvian university. The results indicated that the EE had an impact on student EI. The results also indicated that EE had an impact on individual factors: self-confidence, entrepreneurial attitude, creativity, and previous experience in entrepreneurship, and had no impact on contextual factors. The findings contribute to the EE and conclude that the study of the same sample should be continued until before students graduate to analyze the evolution of the EE in EI.
