Abstract:
The present study is a modest attempt to examine whether the students pursuing
management education in entrepreneurship perceive their Entrepreneurial Self
Efficacy (ESE) to be significantly different from those pursuing management
educations in other disciplines. The study also investigates the role of
demographic variables like gender, family background, prior work-experience,
and prior entrepreneurial exposure in influencing ESE. The study is based on a
sample of 244 entrepreneurship graduates and 212 management graduates
collected from different institutes in Western India and their ESE was measured
through a five-point Likert scale self-administered questionnaire based on a fourphase venture creation model.
