Abstract
Purpose: From a skills perspective, the academic field of entrepreneurship has grown to become a keyelement in university studies. Determining whether these skills exist among university students and howto foster them is a key in higher education. To this effect, the aim of this study is to determine theentrepreneurial skills’ level among the students on the different disciplines. The empirical applicationconsiders the case of the Faculty of Business and Economics Sciences of University of Girona.Design/methodology: Information about the skill level was collected using a skills model calledTricuspoid, which was specifically designed for the self-assessment of entrepreneurial skills. Informationabout students’ sociodemographic, professional and educational profile was collected using a self-administered complementary questionnaire. Bivariate analysis and statistical contrast were applied. Findings: Being a man, doing sport, balancing studying with paid work and accessing university studiesvia the vocational training pathway are indicators of a greater entrepreneurial capacity. On the otherhand, being a woman, accessing university studies via baccalaureate or having no knowledge of English,however, are factors associated with a deficit in entrepreneurial talent.Originality/value: Considering the fact that attitude to entrepreneurship can be modified througheducational interventions, identifying these factors enables us to formulate guidelines for teachingactivities that increase students’ entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial capacity for a better integration forour students into the job market
