Abstract

The field of entrepreneurship has grown at an incredible rate over the past 20 years as evidenced by the increased number of endowed positions, academic organizations, journals, and other publications. A telephone survey of all (232) U.S. universities with at least 10,000 students was conducted to determine the extent of the growth of educational programs focusing on entrepreneurship. The results indicate that educational programs are widely spread throughout this segment of the educational infrastructure but that most remain relatively underdeveloped.
