The profile of undergraduate students that partici-pate in a face-to-face entrepreneurship multidisciplinary course is presented. The course is part of the engineering curricula in an university of Mexico. Entrepreneurial experiences, background, interests, attitudes, intention and perception of entrepreneurial skills of the participant students are addressed through this paper. The experimental protocol consisted of a pre-test, intensive entrepreneurship activities, with experiential and sustainable perspective, and a post-test. Data were collected by applying a validated questionnaire to fifty two students. The questionnaire consists of eighty questions on a four-point Likert scale. After a rigorous statistical analysis, results show that this course positively impacted the perceived organizational entrepreneurial culture and skills, attitudes, and interests in the participant students, and offers valuable data for decision making to impact the entrepreneurial intention to start a business in the short-term. © 2025 IEEE.
