Abstract	The purpose of this study was to see if there was a link between university entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions among student-teachers at SOED in UDSM. Objectives of the study were:(i) Determine whether university students at SOED who study university entrepreneurship education have higher entrepreneurial tendencies such as need for achievement, need for autonomy, creative tendency, calculated risk taking, and internal locus of control than those who do not; (ii) Determine whether university students at SOED who study university entrepreneurship education have higher entrepreneurial intentions than those who do not; and (iii) At SOED, in UDSM, investigate the relationship between university entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions of university students. The hypotheses of the study were: 1.The mean of need for achievement for student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial intentions are not significantly different from that of non-recipients; 2. The mean of need for autonomy for student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial intentions are not significantly different from that of non-recipients; 3. The mean of creative tendency for student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial intentions are not significantly different from that of non-recipients; 4. The mean of calculated risk taking for student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial intentions are not significantly different from that of non-recipients; 5. The mean of internal locus of control for student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial intentions are not significantly different from that of non-recipients; 6. The mean of total entrepreneurial intentions of student-teachers at SOED who receive university entrepreneurial education is not significantly different from that of non-recipients; and 7. There is no correlation between university entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial intentions of university students at SOED, in UDSM, Tanzania. In this study, the correlation research design was used to answer the study's main research question. Correlation was tested using Point Biserial Correlation. There was no significant relationship between university entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions of university students at SOED, in UDSM, Tanzania. r[subscript pb] (34)=0.071, p=0.681. Only hypothesis 2 was rejected meaning that there was significance mean difference in terms of need for autonomy between student-teachers who study university entrepreneurship education and those who do not in this study. The respondents' entrepreneurial intentions were medium, with a mean of 31.78 out of a possible 54 on the Caird test. The majority were unlikely to launch an innovative, growth-oriented global company, but they may be able to express their entrepreneurial spirit at work as an intrapreneur or in their spare time through volunteer community projects. Further research should be conducted among student-teachers at SOED in UDSM to determine why there is no significant mean difference between recipients and non-recipients of university entrepreneurship education in the following entrepreneurial tendencies: need for achievement, creative tendency, calculated risk taking, and internal locus of control. Further research should be conducted among student-teachers at SOED in UDSM to determine why there is a significant mean difference between recipients and non-recipients of university entrepreneurship education in terms of need for autonomy.
