Authors : Ait Abbas Hafida Fella . Salaouatchi Hichem Sofiane .

Abstract

This research identifies the determinants of entrepreneurial intentions among Algerian business schools students. In the present paper, we seek to analyze the relationship between entrepreneurial intentions and students’ attitudes towards entrepreneurship, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and entrepreneurship education. This paper aims to understand, describe, and explain the entrepreneurial intentions of students following an entrepreneurship education at Algerian business schools. A survey was conducted among 123 students on their final-year of an entrepreneurship education program at three major Algerian business schools. The results of this research show that attitudes towards entrepreneurship, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and entrepreneurship education influence positively and significantly the students’ entrepreneurial intentions.
