This study aims to analyze the institutionalization process of education focused on entrepreneurship at the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD). Teaching, research and extension projects were found that promote this form of education and understand how the theme is perceived by the coordinators of undergraduate courses in the selected universe. In order to clarify concepts such as competency education, entrepreneurial skills and entrepreneurship, works by authors, both national and foreign, were used that are largely dedicated to the study of the theme. A mixed, qualitative approach employed in interviews and a quantitative approach to data measurement was adopted. It was observed that the majority of respondents believe that this form of education is important for the academic, especially for coordinators of undergraduate courses in the bachelor's degree. There is a need to improve the methods and ways of implementing entrepreneurial education, especially with the creation of an environment favorable to entrepreneurial practices for both teachers and students. The presented result seeks to provide subsidies for the creation of public policies within UFGD and, if possible, in other universities aiming at promoting entrepreneurial education in professional training. This study seeks to contribute to the improvement of entrepreneurial education at UFGD since there were signs that it is still underdeveloped, with room for growth. It is difficult to generalize because it is a unique and specific case study.
