Abstract

Graduate entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial graduates are two focal concerns of the Ministry of Education of Malaysia due to the increasing rate of unemployment in Malaysia. A study conducted by Centre of Student Entrepreneurship Development at Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) and the Office of Alumni Management USIM is aimed at understanding the non-business graduates’ attempts towards entrepreneurial activities. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to a number of 25 USIM alumni entrepreneurs. This study is expected to assist the university as well as the Government in intensifying efforts to encourage more students to entrepreneurship activities as their career path upon graduation.
