Abstract: This study aims to analyze the role of university education in the development of entrepreneurial vocations among students, reconsidering the prevalent approach of higher education institutions in the generation of human capital for society. Specifically, we present some results of a comparison between students with high and low perceptions of entrepreneurship education in the university, analyzing the effect of this variable on their perceptions of self-efficacy to start a business, outcome expectations and preferences for self-employment. Results suggest the potential benefits of entrepreneurship education to give a better satisfaction to students' work needs in a current highly complex labor market.
