Abstract

This study aims to explore the entrepreneurial skills of undergraduate students at a state  agricultural university in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. Entrepreneurial skills play a vital  role in identifying opportunities, acquiring resources, and taking decisive action for success.  Enterprise education focuses on developing an enterprising mindset and skills across various  contexts, enhancing employability and benefiting individuals, the workforce, the community,  and the economy. Understanding the entrepreneurial skills of undergraduate students can  provide valuable insights for improving skill levels and promoting entrepreneurship. This  research investigates the socio-personal, economic, psychological, and communication  characteristics of the students, as well as their risk orientation. Additionally, the study examines  the relationship between independent variables, such as motivation, self-confidence, and selfefficacy, and entrepreneurial intentions. The findings from this study will contribute to designing  more effective entrepreneurship education programs and support systems, as well as informing  government policies to encourage entrepreneurial activity among undergraduate students.
