Unlocking Entrepreneurial Spirit: Students' Views on University Support for Business Ventures

Despite existing research on student entrepreneurial potential, opportunities for further exploration persist. On the one hand, this paper is part of the current research on student entrepreneurship. On the other hand, the article attempts to provide an answer to the question of how entrepreneurial potential is shaped in the cross-section of different fields of study, in relation to Polish- and English-language studies as well as full-time and part-time students. The added value of this article is the development of a fully proprietary questionnaire form calibrated both in terms of its scale and psychometric properties. The results reveal the entrepreneurial potential of the surveyed students and show how it varies by field and mode of study, as well as between Polish- and English-language students. The study also offers recommendations for university policies to better support and promote student entrepreneurship.
