Social Entrepreneurship in Higher Technology Education Students: Gender Analysis

The topic of social entrepreneurship is of great importance due to the diverse problems that society faces, which require the development of effective projects with a social conscience that is oriented to contribute to community well-being. The aim of this research was to analyse the social entrepreneurial intentions of students from the business area in a higher education institution, with the purpose of identifying significant differences regarding gender. The study is empirical, descriptive, and exploratory, using a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 228 students, of which 45.61% are male and 54.39% are female. The statistical method was applied through the t-student test, which allows us to accept the hypothesis that there is a significant difference in the social entrepreneurial intentions between men and women.
