This study aimed to analyze the influence of socioeconomic factors on the motivation for social entrepreneurship. We studied 192 management students from three Higher Education Institutions. The data collection involved a questionnaire with closed questions to determine the socioeconomic profile and Likert scale questions to analyze the interest in social entrepreneurship. After the numerical analysis of the answers and the application of the linear regression method, it was verified that the factors belonging to the HEI of the periphery of the capital, parents’ lower income, lower age and higher schooling of the father influence the interest in getting involved in social entrepreneurship. It was also noted that 89.26% of respondents consider the career of social entrepreneur significant and exciting. This work demonstrates that there is a strong tendency among young people to seek this type of career in order to obtain a more significant and relevant professional development.
