Year 2018, Volume: 2 Issue: 4, 1 - 26, 01.12.2018

Abstract

Entrepreneurship, the starting point of economic activity, is one of the most important factors of the economy in capitalist systems. The entrepreneurs are very important in the economy in terms of establishing new business, organizing production factors, realizing production, making investments and providing employment. In recent years, the importance of the entrepreneurship educations has increased and courses on entrepreneurship have become widespread all over the world. Entrepreneurship educations are the most important factor in the development of entrepreneurship, but the studies in the literature, on the effect of these educations on entrepreneurship are limited.In this study, it is examined that whether entrepreneurship education in universities has an influence on individuals to establish their own business. A survey conducted to measure the effect of entrepreneurship training on entrepreneurial tendencies, and survey results are compared to determine the differences about setting up their own business between the university students who did or did not have entrepreneurship training. For this purpose, a total of 217 students were interviewed. The students' knowledge about entrepreneurship, their interest in setting up their own workplaces, the reasons behind their desire to be an entrepreneur and the factors preventing them from being the initiative were determined by the survey questions. These elements are compared between the students who attended the entrepreneurship courses and did not attended entrepreneurship education. According to the results of the research, students who attended to entrepreneurship education much more think to establish their own business than those who do not attended entrepreneurship education. Students who attended to entrepreneurship education are more interested in setting up their own business, and more eager to push the conditions to establish their own business. In addition this, students who attended to entrepreneurship education believe that they will be able to establish their own business in a shorter period.

GİRİŞİMCİLİK EĞİTİMLERİNİN GİRİŞİMCİ OLMA EĞİLİMİNE ETKİSİ ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Year 2018, Volume: 2 Issue: 4, 1 - 26, 01.12.2018

Abstract

Ekonomik faaliyetlerin başlangıç noktası olan girişimcilik kapitalist sistemlerde ekonominin en önemli faktörlerinden biridir. Yeni iş kurma, üretim faktörlerini organizasyonunu yaparak üretim gerçekleştirme, yatırım yapma ve istihdam sağlama gibi konularda girişimciler ekonomide büyük önem taşımaktadır. Son yıllarda girişimciliği geliştirmeye yönelik tüm dünyada girişimcilik eğitimlerine verilen önem artmış ve bu eğitimler yaygınlaştırılmıştır. Girişimcilik eğitimleri girişimciliğin gelişmesinde en önemli faktördür ancak bu eğitimlerin girişimciliğe etkisine yönelik literatürde bulunan çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmada üniversite öğrencilerine verilen girişimcilik eğitiminin bireylerin kendi işini kurmasına, girişimcilik eğilimlerine bir etkisi olup olmadığı incelenmiştir. Girişimcilik eğitimlerinin girişimci olma eğilimlerine etkisini ölçmek amacıyla yapılan araştırmada üniversite öğrencilerine kendi işlerini kurma konusundaki düşüncelerini belirlemeye yönelik bir anket araştırması yapılmış ve girişimcilik eğitimi alan ve almayan üniversite öğrencilerinin girişimci olma eğilimleri karşılaştırılmıştır. Bunun için girişimcilik dersi alan ve almayan toplam 217 öğrenciye anket uygulanmıştır. Anketlerde yöneltilen sorularla öğrencilerin girişimcilik konusundaki bilgi düzeyleri, kendi işyerlerini kurma konusunda ilgileri, girişimci olmak istemelerinin altında yatan nedenler ve girişimi olmalarını engelleyen unsurlar belirlenmiştir. Bu unsurlar girişimcilik eğitimi alan ve almayan öğrenciler açısından karşılaştırılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre girişimcilik eğitimi alanlar kendi işini kurmayı girişimcilik eğitimi almayanlara kıyasla daha çok düşünmektedir. Girişimcilik eğitimi alanlar kendi işini kurmakla daha fazla ilgilenmekte ve kendi işini kurmak için şartları daha çok zorlama niyetindedir. Ayrıca girişimcilik eğitimi alanlar daha kısa sürede kendi iş yerini kurabileceklerini düşünmektedir.
