Abstract
Entrepreneurship education in Higher Education Institutions (HEI) has grown exponentially since the first entrepreneurship course was taught by Miles Mace at Harvard Business School in 1947 (Katz, 2003). By 1970, 16 universities were offering entrepreneurship courses. From this base, the number grew to over 400 schools in 1995 (Vesper & Gartner, 1997) and to over 1,600 in 2005 (Kuratko, 2005). Today, entrepreneurship education is widely spread in the US (Katz, 2003) and Europe.
