Entrepreneurial Mind-set among Commerce and Non-commerce Students: A Comparative Study

Author(s) Ms. Megha Gupta, Ms. Ankita Sharma
Country India
Abstract In today's dynamic global economy, entrepreneurialism is recognised as a key catalyst for innovation, job creation, and sustainable economic growth. This study seeks to question the entrepreneurial intentions of college students and examine the impact of academic background and gender on their entrepreneurial mind-set. A sample of 100 undergraduates from Jaipur, Rajasthan, was selected using random sampling techniques, including 50 students each from commerce and non-commerce streams with equal gender representation. A structured questionnaire was administered to gather data on entrepreneurial attitudes, motivation, and future career orientation. The analysis revealed that students from commerce backgrounds exhibited slightly stronger entrepreneurial intentions than their non-commerce counterparts. Additionally, male students showed marginally higher levels of entrepreneurial inclination compared to female students. While the observed differences were modest, they indicate that both academic stream and gender may contribute to shaping entrepreneurial aspirations. The study highlights the need for integrated entrepreneurship education across academic disciplines to nurture entrepreneurial talent and encourage innovation among youth.
