Abstract:
The research aims to investigate Tanzanian undergraduate students' attitudes towards
entrepreneurial activities at Moshi Co-operative University. The study sought to ascertain
graduates' willingness to establish businesses following their studies; to investigate the
determinants of graduates' entry into entrepreneurial activities; to ascertain the contribution of
entrepreneurship education programmes to graduates' entrepreneurship; and to identify
university efforts to improve graduates' entrepreneurial activities capacity. The study used a
case study research design. The study's sample size was 292 people, and data were obtained
via questionnaires. The data was examined using descriptive statistics and the independent
sample t-test. The study also discovered that an individual's personality determines his or her
willingness to engage in entrepreneurial activity. However, entrepreneurial activity resulted in
the creation of jobs. The study revealed that the primary impact of entrepreneurship education
courses to graduates in terms of reducing unemployment is job creation. Before starting a firm,
the minimum capital should be considered. The report suggests that colleges and other higher
learning institutions should make entrepreneurship training mandatory for all students to
enhance their attitudes towards entrepreneurial activity. The Moshi Co-operative University
should use a "student-centered learning model. "To encourage entrepreneurship at universities
and other higher learning institutions, instructional techniques that allow both practical
application of the taught material and holistic development of the essential skill sets should be
used.
