Entrepreneurial potential in the university: intentions and attitudes towards new venture creation.

. In the last decade, European governments have become increasingly aware of the potential of the university system to detect the entrepreneurial interests of students and to motivate and train them to start new successful business, as a source of socioeconomic welfare. From this point of view, it would be expected that the transit through university had a positive impact on entrepreneurial vocations, attitudes and perceived competence of students. This study uses a comparison between first and last-year students at the University of Leon (Spain), with the purpose of determining the extent to which these variables evolve along superior studies, making clear the formative and motivational shortages of university systems in entrepreneurship issues. Results suggest that the transit through university doesn’t foster in an appropriate way the entrepreneurial potential of students, they showing low intentions to start a business as professional career and negative attitudes towards entrepreneurial behaviours. Paradoxically, results also show that first-year students feel relative confident in their personal skills for entrepreneurship, and knowledge and abilities acquired at the university foster students’ self-efficacy even more. Conclusions from the study point out the need of incorporating entrepreneurship training and motivation in the university agenda in several ways, in order to make the most of the human capital generated and to transform it in economic and social utility.
