About this ebook

Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Technical University of Munich, language: English, abstract: This thesis addresses the longer-term impact of interdisciplinary entrepreneurship education on alumni’s career paths regarding entrepreneurial and innovative outcomes. A survey was deployed to the alumni of the Center for Digital Technology and Management’s interdisciplinary entrepreneurship program in Munich, employing a mixed-method research approach. This research draws on the Social Cognitive Career Theory as its theoretical framework, primarily focusing on the self-efficacy construct. The findings of this thesis shed light on the career trajectories of the CDTM alumni. Additionally, the research compares the self-efficacies and work behaviors in relation to innovation and entrepreneurship of two distinct groups: founder and non-founder alumni. Lastly, three elements of entrepreneurship education were identified as having the most significant impact on alumni’s careers and the promotion of entrepreneurship and innovation. Hence, this thesis contributes to the existing body of knowledge by expanding the understanding of entrepreneurship education’s influence on fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. The study identifies key factors contributing to the success of such entrepreneurship education, offering suggestions that can be incorporated into existing and future entrepreneurship education programs designed for interdisciplinary individuals. This work serves as a foundational resource for enhancing future entrepreneurship programs, ultimately contributing to economic growth and societal development.
