Abstract

Entrepreneurs have made a huge contribution on the economic and social lives of people in India. The Government plays a critical role in nurturing innovative ideas and encourages entrepreneurship in the skill based sectors. The present study aims to determine whether considering entrepreneurship as a subject in the course curriculum will help the students to decide entrepreneurship as their career in case they are pursuing hotel administration or hospitality management course. McIntyre and Roche (1999) define “entrepreneurship education as the process of passing the necessary skills and concepts to individuals to identify new business opportunities and to reach high level of self-confidence to benefit from such opportunities”. Thus, entrepreneur education plays a crucial and important role in providing the necessary skills for an entrepreneur to carry out their daily business requirements and to handle obstacles. A total of 245 students participated in the survey from ten institutions offering hospitality program located in Delhi/ NCR, India. Findings reveal that students of this course are positively inclined towards entrepreneurship as a part of curriculum for hotel and hospitality sector
