- Description
- Entrepreneurship education is one of the most influential forces in the growth and development of an economy. It diminishes the twin issues of unemployment and poverty through entrepreneurship creation. The paradigm shift of student focus on job-oriented programme to job-creating programmes such as Management in Entrepreneurship, Diploma in Entrepreneurship and other training programmes raised the scope of entrepreneurship. Based on a comprehensive review of the relevant literature, this paper suggests that the pedagogical tools employed in entrepreneurship education such as role modelling, hands-on experience, incubation and mentoring support can be effectively used for developing entrepreneurial intentions among the students in higher educational institutions. The paper discusses few propositions developed based on the literature review and proposes a model which can be adopted by higher educational institutions for increasing entrepreneurial intention and thereby entrepreneurship.
