Abstract: The study aimed at assessing the entrepreneurial activities and teaching performance of the faculty members of the University of Eastern Philippines. Specifically, the study determined the profile of the faculty respondents in terms of age, sex, educational attainment, academic rank, number of family members, and net take-home pay; ascertained the kind of entrepreneurial activities engaged by the respondents; found out the relationship between the level of teaching performance and the type of entrepreneurial activities engaged by the respondents, and determined the economic change/metamorphosis of families as the result of entrepreneurial activities. The researcher used descriptive correlation research design and employed a complete enumeration of respondents of the faculty members of the University of Eastern Philippines who are engaged in entrepreneurial activities. The instrument utilized by the study was the survey questionnaire in determining the profile of the respondents; the data gathered were analyzed using t-test for the relationship between the entrepreneurial activities and teaching performance of the respondents. The study found out that all respondents have quite satisfactory performance in their duties as faculty members. This implied that they have not compromised the quality of their job performance while pursuing personal business or entrepreneurial activities. The findings also showed that the respondents engaged in worthwhile business activities to augment their salaries drawn from the government. They do not depend only on their salaries to meet their family’s needs. These faculty members took the risk of engaging in entrepreneurial activities to reinforce their incomes.
