Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the use and impact of entrepreneurship education methods on students' entrepreneurial intentions. The study used a survey design to sample 555 primary data from undergraduate students in one public and one private university in Ghana. We analysed the data using structural equation modelling, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The results of the structural equation modelling show that active methods of education were more effective in influencing students' entrepreneurial intention, although passive methods of teaching were dominant among most educators. The paper also reveals the influence of gender and personal characteristics on students' venture creation intentions. The findings, recommendations, and limitations are discussed below.
