Prof. Uma Joshi

Abstract :

Entrepreneurship has become very significant in today‘s time of employment crisis. Indian government is extending its support to promote entrepreneurship. In spite of this support, it is observed that many start–ups fail in first five years only. Therefore the present study was undertaken with the objective of studying selected entrepreneurial traits of the final year students aspiring to be entrepreneurs after completion of their studies. The students were selected from The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda and Navrachana University, Vadodara, Gujarat. Over and above entrepreneurial traits, student’s perceptions regarding entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education were also studied. Family orientation of entrepreneurship was found to be the main factor affecting entrepreneurial traits among the students
