Abstract
The study assessed the entrepreneurial intention of business students of the state universities and colleges in Caraga Region. Specifically, it evaluated the socio-demographic profile of the respondents, the level of entrepreneurial intention, the relationship between the respondents’ socio-demographic background and level of entrepreneurial intention, and the relationship between the respondents’ entrepreneurial personality characteristics and level of entrepreneurial intention. The study revealed that respondents generally agreed to the entrepreneurial personality characteristics. Although starting their own business sounds attractive to the respondents but most were not yet ready to embark into entrepreneurship immediately within a year after graduation. The respondents’ socio-demographic profiles were related to the level of entrepreneurship intention. There was no significant relationship of entrepreneurial personality characteristics to the level of entrepreneurial intention.
