Abstract
The present study examines students’ attitudes toward entrepreneurship
education. The context of the study are the arts, where we empirically test
whether Bridgstock’s (2013) theoretical classification of arts entrepreneurship
education is recognized by students from higher music education institutes in the
Netherlands. Specifically, we investigate 167 music students’ perceived need for
various entrepreneurship education topics, because students’ concurrent attitudes
toward entrepreneurship education may affect their future career behaviours. Our
findings suggest that students embrace a holistic approach to entrepreneurship
education, in terms of new venture creation, being enterprising, and
employability and career self-management. Values such as a passion for music
and the need for autonomy are not at odds with the perceived need for
entrepreneurship education in relation to vocational work. As one of the first
attempts to quantitatively investigate students’ perceived need for
entrepreneurship education (PNEE), this study is a stepping stone for future
quantitative research in this area.
