Özet: Entrepreneurship, which is one of the most inluential dynamics of country development, is handled from different dimensions and is supported by different agency and institutes in order to become widespread. Universities play a key role in encouraging the entrepreneurial intent. Many studies prove the effect of educational programmes on entrepreneurial intent and entrepreneurial behaviour. Despite this direct effect and both the great interest of academy and business leaders and governmental policies, it is observed that entrepreneurial education in Turkey was not common, or even so, it is limited with social sciences especially. In this context, in the study, the difference in entrepreneurial intent of university students in terms of educational field social sciences, physical sciences, educational sciences and medical sciences is examined. Those differences have been caused by participatory situation of the students of physical sciences in comparison to educational and medical sciences in terms of “Attitude toward Entrepreneurship”, “Opportunities toward Entrepreneurship” and “Perceived Supportive Factors” dimensions. No significant difference has been found among education fields in “Perceived University Environment”, “Tendency for Risk Taking and Change” and “Perceived Educational Factors”
