Student Entrepreneurial Intention Study

In addition to the goals of providing education and conducting research, The UWI is now pursuing a third major goal — innovation and entrepreneurship — as part of its overall developmental agenda.

To this end, the UOP recently conducted a Student Entrepreneurial Intention Study aimed at determining the level of interest in entrepreneurship (entrepreneurial intentions) by the current cohort of students (2019-2020) and how best to increase and sustain that interest among future students.

The results of that study based on an entrepreneurial intentions pilot survey are now available. To read, please click here
