Abstract

Higher education institutions (HEIs) have a responsibility towards the comprehensive transformation, both social and economic, that they bring to individuals through their access to teaching and learning processes. Therefore, through a document review methodology, the aim was to identify the main institutional factors that impact students' entrepreneurial activity. In this way, a unified input is generated to support the programs and initiatives of each institution, to contribute to their strengthening and the promotion of entrepreneurial activity. It was found that entrepreneurship education should be approached as something other than the ultimate goal but as an expected outcome of a comprehensive education, fostering the development of essential life skills such as creativity and innovation.
