Abstract: Entrepreneurial activities that contribute significantly to the development of socio-cultural structure constitute an important potential in terms of economic development. The entrepreneurial tendency of the individual based on entrepreneurial personality traits is also considered as an important factor that will bring success. Employees with creative ideas apply their innovative skills to the institution they work for and develop their corporate entrepreneurship orientation by evaluating opportunities. The high level of entrepreneurship orientation in universities which are expected to show continuous improvement has become among the expected characteristics of academicians. Projects within a sustainable innovative teaching system, the development of new learning techniques, actualize an entrepreneurial tendency reflected to students by synergy. From here, it is aimed to determine the level of entrepreneurship oriented towards women academicians of 5 universities that provide education in Istanbul as well as to reveal the relationship between career satisfaction. In the analyses conducted for 289 women academicians, the entrepreneurial orientation has a 45.9% positive effect on career satisfaction. 61.8% of female academics have high perception of entrepreneurship, 38.2% have low perception.
