Evolution of Entrepreneurship Education

Abstract

Entrepreneurship is an important catalyst that contributes to a country's GDP. The government of a country must invest in entrepreneurship initiatives to ensure the economy's continued growth and sustainability. A good start would be to develop the skills, attitudes, and knowledge of entrepreneurs and potential entrepreneurs through entrepreneurial education. In a technologically advanced society, the unemployment rate has increased worldwide, and a factor that can stimulate the economy is entrepreneurship education, which motivates graduates to take up opportunities in the business environment and produce innovative goods and services. Entrepreneurial education can assist in developing the expertise of undergraduates so that they can become self-employed. Through education students of entrepreneurship can discover new behaviors, thinking, and training to become innovative, creative, and risk-taking entrepreneurs. This chapter will explore how entrepreneurial education has evolved over the years.
