This chapter investigates the factors of becoming self-employed among tertiary education students in East Coast Malaysia. Among others, three motivating factors obtained a positive response; intention to upgrade income to a higher level, be independent at work, and acquire more satisfaction as an entrepreneur. Self-administered questionnaires adapted from a previous research were distributed to tertiary education students in East Coast Malaysia. 104 questionnaires were analyzed and found to be usable for this study. Generally, the results of the study indicated that the respondents had a positive interest towards becoming self-employed with a very significant level through the research findings. This is a good sign to the related tertiary education institutions and country as a whole in which most of the future graduates are interested in being independent entrepreneurs. Thus, Malaysia will be able to increase the statistics of those who are self-employed among tertiary graduates. Not only that, the Ministry of Education can emphasize more activities, programmes and courses that are able to develop the skills to become entrepreneurs among tertiary education students. |
