The aim to analyze the influence of entrepreneurial characteristics and entrepreneurial training on the entrepreneurial intention of university students. The research was descriptive, with quantitative approach, statistical procedures and cross - sectional design, with a sample composed of 403 university students from all courses of the Federal Technological University of Paraná - Francisco Beltrão – Paraná/Brazil. Multivariate regression analysis allowed us to analyze the proposed influence on the confirmatory model, explaining 47.3% and 25.6% of its variance. These results relate to the growing interest in entrepreneurship education, expressed by policies, higher education institutions and students. Social contributions are expressed in the social and environmental variables present in the entrepreneurial characteristic and the intention to undertake. The originality of the study is the application of the international model adapted from Küttim et al. (2014) and Adekiya and Ibrahim (2016) in the Brazilian context. The entrepreneurial characteristic has been shown to contribute to the development of the entrepreneurial intentions of the students. Participation in entrepreneurial training has a positive impact on entrepreneurial intentions.
