Abstract

Objective: to analyze the entrepreneurship courses in nursing programs at Brazilian public higher education institutions. Method: a qualitative documentary research conducted on the websites of 130 undergraduate nursing programs at public higher education institutions that had either the course's pedagogical project or curriculum matrix available in the public domain. Out of the total, 14 programs offered a specific entrepreneurship these. Results: 10.8% (n=14) of the nursing programs had a specific entrepreneurship subject in their curriculum, with 78.6% of these being theoretical and 57.1% mandatory, averaging 40.43 hours of course load. Based on the qualitative analysis of the course syllabi, three main categories related to entrepreneurship education in nursing programs were identified: structural elements, procedural elements, and outcome elements of entrepreneurship. Conclusion: despite the adherence of the content to the literary recommendations on entrepreneurial education, the number of specific courses remains low, with a greater focus on theoretical modalities.
