Abstract:
This study investigates entrepreneurial intentions among non-business students. Studies on entrepreneurial intentions have traditionally been done among business students. How do non-business students compare to their counterparts? A total of 130 respondents participated in this study. The results indicated low entrepreneurial intentions, with a majority indicating no previous business start-ups, and a majority self-reported that they were not from an entrepreneurial background. However, coming from an entrepreneurial background was related to entrepreneurial intentions and the variable attitudes in the theory of planned behavior explained the largest variance in the model. Implications for entrepreneurship curriculum development towards non-business students were discussed.
