대학생의 기업가적 역량, 창업의지 및 취업의지에 대한 창업교육의 역할: 호텔관광전공자 창업교육집단과 비창업교육집단

The purpose of this study is to identify the role of entrepreneurial education in the hotel and tourism field in improving the entrepreneurial competencies, entrepreneurial intention, and employment intention (intention to get a job) among hotel and tourism major students. Specifically, the study tries to reveal the difference in tourism entrepreneurial competencies, entrepreneurial intention, and employment intention between two groups: one that received entrepreneurial education (EE) and the counterpart that not received (NEE). The influence of entrepreneurial competencies on entrepreneurial intention and employment will, and the moderating effect of entrepreneurial education were also examined. Data were collected from university students majoring in hotel and tourism management in December 2017, and a total of 301 samples were analyzed using independent t-test, regression analysis, and Z-test. The findings suggest that entrepreneurial competencies consisted of cognitive competencies, business competencies, opportunity competencies, negotiation and strategy competencies, and human relations competencies. The business competencies was found to be higher in the EE group than in the NEE group. The EE group showed higher entrepreneurial intention and employment intention than the NEE group. It was found that entrepreneurial education had a moderate effect on the relationship of entrepreneurial competencies and employment intention. This study contributes to identifying the importance of entrepreneurial education and the impact of entrepreneurial competencies on entrepreneurial and employment intention in the hotel and tourism field.
