Kształtowanie postaw przedsiębiorczych studentów wobec współczesnych wyzwań rozwojowych

The study argues that shaping entrepreneurial attitudes is becoming an imperative today in the face of changes taking place in the environment, and that entrepreneurship among the young generation is a largely approved attitude and starting up your own company is seen as a potential career option. The aim of the research is to identify entrepreneurial attitudes of students in the context of their importance in the face of contemporary development challenges. The role of education was discussed for a proper understanding of the essence and conditions of entrepreneurship, as well as manifesting entrepreneurial attitudes and behavior for the purposes of developing a modern economy and increasing the well-being of the society. Based on own empirical research, an analysis and assessment of the entrepreneurial attitude of students were made. The attitude was determined using personality traits, recognized values and a tendency to be active on the labour market by choosing the profession of entrepreneur as a career path. The motives and manifestations of these behaviours were analysed with selected social factors, such as place of residence, or family traditions, as well as by gender and selected education profile. Research results prove that entrepreneurship among students is largely an approved attitude, however, when comes to career options it remains in the sphere of intentions.
