Abstract: Abstract Internal and external stakeholders in Higher Education have been actively pushing entrepreneurship as a profitable career choice among students since the adoption of the National Innovation and Startup Policy and the implementation of the National Education Policy 2020 throughout the Nation. There is a dearth of studies examining the entrepreneurial motivations of college students. In this setting, the present investigates whether or not college students plan to launch a company while they are still in school. Respondents were recruited via the use of a structured online questionnaire. The responders were undergraduates and graduate students from all universities and colleges around the country. The research provides useful information for entrepreneurs interested in launching a firm in a variety of fields. The results of this research will be useful for academics, University leaders, and public and private sector officials. The findings of this investigation will add to the little data already available in southern India.
