| Abstract: | An entrepreneurial spirit is a crucial component of every nation's progress. For the majority of emerging nations, the biggest issue is unemployment. When it comes to lowering unemployment rates, entrepreneurs are crucial since they create jobs. Starting a business from scratch is not a picnic; it calls for meticulous preparation over the long haul. Expertise in creating and overseeing commercial ventures is also necessary. To achieve success as an entrepreneur, one must first understand his or her motivations and aspirations. Educated young people lack the necessary knowledge and skills to launch a new business. There are a lot of factors that influence students' entrepreneurial intents and attitudes while they are just starting out in the workforce, thus measuring students' intentions for starting a new firm is vital. An entrepreneur's desire to involve in an entrepreneurial action is defined by their level of commitment to the "Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB)." The sample size was 600 students, drawn from a variety of universities, both public and private, in Punjab. A student's entrepreneurial purpose was significantly impacted by their perceived control over their behavior and their attitude towards the activity, according to the results. Students' aspirations to start their own businesses might be bolstered by an industry interface and a start-up fund. Students lack the necessary information and expertise to launch a company, and many are unsure of how to create an organization plan for an entrepreneurial initiative. There was no statistically significant association between students' subjective norm and their intention to start their own business in this study. A person's social circle may not have the sway they need to make decisions in the face of societal shifts occurring at a rapid pace. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
