Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine college students’ inclination toward entrepreneurship by using a Likert questionnaire. The sample consisted of 50 full-time students enrolled in a private college in Sabah, Malaysia. Findings revealed that a majority of the respondents indicated that college helped them develop the social and leadership skills for entrepreneurship. They would choose to become entrepreneurs after their studies and saw themselves as entrepreneurs in the next 10 years. A majority also indicated that they were interested in becoming entrepreneurs and wanted to become their own boss rather than working for others. Finally, recommendations on how colleges could enhance students’ inclination toward entrepreneurship were given.
