“…Moreover, universities are increasingly becoming critical organizations in contributing to the development of the entrepreneurial mindset of new and potential future entrepreneurs, by offering either compulsory or optional EEP, always with the primary objective of encouraging the entrepreneurial attitudes and the creation of new ventures by their students (Bergmann et al, 2016b;Greene et al, 2004;Lopez and Alvarez, 2019;Martins et al, 2018;Sherkat and Chenari, 2020). This is based on the belief that compared to non-graduates, university graduates are considered potential entrepreneurs with a higher probability of developing a favorable attitude to starting their own business (Zainuddin, 2012).…”

PurposeDrawing on entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention literature, this paper develops and tests a model that aims to explain the relationship between students' perception of learning from entrepreneurship education programs (EEP), the theory of planned behavior and entrepreneurial intention across Latin American countries.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses data from the Global University Entrepreneurship Spirit Student’s Survey (GUESSS) project 2018 for 11 Latin American countries. Structural equation modeling is used to validate the theoretical model; this offers advantages over traditional multivariate techniques in evaluating measurement errors, estimation of latent variables and specification of models.FindingsThe main results suggest that a positive perception of learning from EEP is related to the antecedents of entrepreneurial intention. Moreover, attitude toward entrepreneurial behavior and perceived behavior control positively influences entrepreneurial intention across Latin American undergraduate students. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the role of EEP in terms of the antecedents of the intention and, in addition, provide evidence to the theory of planned behavior from a large sample in an emerging region.Originality/valueThe theory of planned behavior is one of the most important theoretical frameworks to explain entrepreneurial intention. However, in Latin American countries, quality research is hindered by the lack of data and valid measures. Therefore, the paper adds value by looking at the perception of learning from EEP and its relationship with the antecedents of intention. Likewise, it validates the dimensions of the theory of planned behavior and its relationship to entrepreneurial intention, considering a broad sample of university students in Latin America.

“…Elle implique un processus de « reconnaissance », de découverte de modèles et de concepts, qui contribue à former des idées (Hunter, 2013). Si d'une part, la connaissance facilite l'identi cation et le développement des opportunités (Shane, 2000) et si, d'autre part, outre la connaissance, l'intention manifeste d'entreprendre nécessite des opportunités (Zainuddin, 2012), alors nous identi ons les principaux éléments qui composent cette étude : l'e et produit par la connaissance tacite et explicite, tant dans l'identi cation des opportunités que dans l'intention manifeste d'entreprendre.…”

The theme of this study can be justified by the importance that European Union gives in promoting the culture of Entrepreneurship among young people, so that they can deal with more awareness and attitude to future educational and career choices. Set this as a premise, this research aims to give an answer to this question: is the Italian university system really meeting the European expectations in terms of developing sense of initiative and entrepreneurship among Italian university students. This article focuses on describing and analyzing the perception that Italian university students have about entrepreneurship in Higher Education. A quantitative research method was used (a questionnaire structured and applied to a sample of 1918 university students). The most significant results are: 71% of the students do not work; 7% are entrepreneurs and out of 71% students who do not work, 39% never had a work experience. However, most of the respondents show interest to start a business and this perception decreases over the years. Moreover, 58.4% do not believe that the university can help a student find a job and 57.6% believe that the university can help an entrepreneur, but only 12.8% actually. A Supranational Policy of Education indicates that Higher Education should develop competencies in students, especially those ones that are considered as key competencies for a student such as initiative, Sense of initiative and entrepreneurship, but how effective these indications are in reality if, as percentages show, only a few students opt for an entrepreneurial career.
