Abstract(s)

The entrepreneurship education has been taking an increasing importance in the educational programs, emphasizing the role of the higher education institutions as promoters of the entrepreneurship. In this work, which is based on the responses obtained through a survey conducted with a sample consisting of 305 students of the Azores University, enrolled in courses of different scientific areas, we aim to assess how, in the student’s perspective, the university can stimulate the interest of their students in creating business. From hierarchical clustering methods we obtain a typology of variables linked to initiatives and activities that could be developed by the university. The main results obtained from some non-parametric hypothesis tests and from correspondence analysis, simple and multiple, are also presented.
