Abstract

Many countries have invested in entrepreneurship education through programs and trainings especially in the Higher Learning Institutions (HLIs). This paper aims to systematically review the outcome of entrepreneurship education (EE) in the higher learning education by reviewing the latest ten-year published records in Southeast Asian countries. The study's primary source of data were research articles published from 2009 to 2018 in English written peer-reviewed journals on Web of Science and Scopus database. A total of 68 related articles were identified, and most of them were Malaysian articles, followed by the Indonesian's. A systematic review approach was applied, guided by the PRISMA Statement, whereby the current study showed the existence of the EE research trend, especially in higher learning institutions. Besides that, this study also shows the outcome of EE in sixth themes, entrepreneurial attitude, entrepreneurial skills and knowledge, entrepreneurial motivation, entrepreneurial competency, entrepreneurial intention, and business start-up. The outcome of entrepreneurship education could be seen more visibly whether it has a positive effect or otherwise, in developing the potential of students as entrepreneurs.

Summary

Introduction

Entrepreneurship Education (EE) is emerging very rapidly. The early history of the introduction of EE in Higher Learning Institutions (HLIs) was implemented in 1968 when Babson College offered entrepreneurship courses to undergraduate students (Katz, 2003). In 1974, the Harvard Business School offered entrepreneurship courses for Master of Business Administration (MBA) students (Bechard & Gregoire, 2005). In 1982, EE in higher learning was becoming increasingly popular after the University of Southern California offered it in 1971, and the number of colleges and universities that offer the course have exceeded 3000 worldwide (Kuratko & Morris, 2017). The government places emphasis on creating awareness of the importance of entrepreneurs for all education levels, especially in HLIs and choosing entrepreneurship as a career option
