Abstract

In recent years many universities have created entrepreneurship centers which offer a set of services to students, educators and professionals in order to promote entrepreneurial attitudes.

The second part summarizes the results of the empirical study based on the Students' Evaluation of Educational Quality (SEEQ) questionnaire administered to 106 students of the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in Spain who attended the entrepreneurship courses offered by the entrepreneurship centre the Innova Program.
