Entrepreneurial competencies and intentions: the role of higher education
Entrepreneurial competencies and intentions: the role of higher education

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this exploratory study is to examine the influence of university enterprise programs on the development of entrepreneurial competencies and skills reported by stu- dents in Ukraine. I also aimed to explore the relationship between students’ skills, competencies and entrepreneurial intentions. The survey methodology was used in this study. Primary data was gathered with the help of a questionnaire. I explored the competencies and skills reported both by students who participated in university enterprise programs and those who had not taken part in the program. A one- way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was utilised to locate the difference in entrepreneurship competencies and skills of business and non-business students. The results suggest that students who have participated in university enterprise programs report higher levels of entrepreneurship-related skills. The findings presented have implications for practi- tioners, policymakers, government officers who support en- trepreneurs, and educators who facilitate the development of the competences of young people.
