%X In this study, we examine the influence of university-based education on students¡¯ entrepreneurial capabilities. While the prevalence of entrepreneurship education is dramatically increasing worldwide, the education that business and engineering students receive throughout their academic experience wields a direct influence on several entrepreneurial capabilities. The purpose of this study is to measure these educational influences on three specific entrepreneurial capabilities¡ªnetworking skill, proactiveness, and self-confidence. Moreover, we aim to raise awareness for faculty and students in these various programs as they form networks and optimize the knowledge obtained throughout their education. We test the hypotheses using data collected from 927 university students. Advice for policy makers, university students, and their respective educational departments is further discussed
