Assessing Students’ Entrepreneurial Intention in Doing Information-Related Business

Abstract:

This study aims to investigate students’ entrepreneurial intention to pursue information-related business when they graduated from their studies. Questionnaires were distributed randomly to 175 postgraduate students of Faculty of Information Management, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Malaysia. The finding revealed that students were quite positive towards their intention in doing information-related business. It also showed that the entrepreneurial intention  in doing information-related business was the same regardless of which gender,  role of family background, discipline of study and family income group they belong. This study had a profound impact in making recommendations particularly to the management of Faculty of Information Management, other academic institutions and educators to design the entrepreneurship course for university students.
