Teaching Entrepreneurship and Its Impact on the Entrepreneurial Intention of Students in Public and Private Universities in Mali: A Comparative Case Study of the University of Segou and the International University of Excellence of Mali

This communication compares two Malian universities (Ségou University and International University of Excellence) in terms of self-employment in order to assess its impact on the development of entrepreneurial intention among students in training. The orientation of the study on the teaching of entrepreneurship made it possible to adopt a quantitative approach based on a hypothetico-deductive approach. The surveys carried out among 345 students from the University of Ségou (US) and 236 students from the International University of Excellence (UIE) have made it possible to arrive at the results showing that the possibilities offered by the teaching of the productivity entrepreneurship of students from both universities prior to graduation provided an overview of self-employment and entrepreneurship education. These are real factors in the development of entrepreneurial intention and self-employment among students who are less and less tempted towards salaried employment.
