Abstract:
Currently, the majority of higher education institutions (HEIs) do not have a profile that allows the development of the entrepreneurial skills that the graduated professional needs. Entrepreneurial activity is one of the main drivers of economic development, mainly due to its role in job creation and the expansion of economic sectors; On the other hand, it is a still new area of knowledge in the global framework of research, and as such, it is in the process of consolidating a conceptual scenario, which makes this proposal pertinent. The methodological approach includes a review of the state of knowledge on the topic, the application of a measurement scale (Profile e20), analysis using multivariate statistical methods (Factor Analysis), and the validation and reliability of the scale used. It is expected to identify the dimensions and variables that characterize the entrepreneurship profile of the students of the University of Sonora, which would facilitate decision making in the design of curricular and teaching-learning strategies. This advance covers up to the Reliability of the Instrument and the Factor Analysis to determine the factors of this construct in the Mexican context.
