Entrepreneurial inclinations among student-teachers in the School of Education, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is a statistically significant mean difference in various entrepreneurial tendencies (including the need for achievement, need for autonomy, creative tendency, calculated risk-taking, and internal locus of control) between student-teachers who have received university entrepreneurship education (Bachelor of Education in Commerce) and those who have not (Bachelor of Education in Adult and Community Education) at the School of Education, University of Dar es Salaam. The study focused on a total sample size of 36 participants, utilizing an independent sample t-test (two-tailed) to compare mean differences. Given the limited sample size, the study's findings are applicable only to student-teachers at the Bachelor's degree level at the School of Education, University of Dar es Salaam, Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Mlimani Campus. Except for the need for autonomy, no statistically significant mean difference was observed among the target population. The study recommends further research to investigate the reasons behind the statistically significant mean difference in terms of the need for autonomy between recipients and non-recipients of university entrepreneurship education at the study location.
