    Abstract
    Entrepreneurship education programs have had an increasing presence in higher education institutions in the last few years. Despite their popularity and the rapid growth of these programs locally and internationally, the extent of their impact on entrepreneurship intention is still unclear. Thus, research findings continue to create conflict among researchers. This thesis meta-analyzed 47 effect sizes from 38 studies published from 2014 to 2018 to reveal the impact of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurship intention in higher education settings. The results show clear evidence that entrepreneurship education affects entrepreneurship intention, the weighted mean effect size was found to be = .313 (lower limit = 0.262, upper limit = .364). Higher education institutions and government agencies should focus on these types of education programs to support the economy, innovation, and start-up businesses, and to attract companies locally. Discussion and research limitations are discussed in this thesis.
