Özet:

Entrepreneurship is an important issue with its social and economic consequences. Today, developed and developing countries are working on the issues about encouraging and supporting people in order to successfully sustain their economies and increase the number of entrepreneurs. In recent years, Turkey with its institutions and organizations focusing on entrepreneurship has made great strides in encouraging and supporting the idea of startups. Entrepreneurship becoming an agenda and starting to take place in ideas can be seen as a positive result. However, Turkey is behind the world average in terms of entrepreneurship. It is stated that the rate of entrepreneurs, which is 5-6% today, should be increased to 10-12% in order not to increase unemployment in our country. Entrepreneurship should now be considered as a career option. Therefore, it is an important issue to determine the entrepreneurial tendency of university students with qualified manpower who will join the society as intellectuals after graduation. In the research, entrepreneurial trends of the university students were determined and a comparison in terms of the state and foundation university was carried out. In fact, as a result of the research, there is no difference between entrepreneurship tendency of students studying at foundation university or state university; there was no difference between gender, faculty and levels. It was observed that most of the students had high and very high entrepreneurship tendency. In this context, the importance given to entrepreneurship activities in the solution of unemployment needs to be increased and the youth should be guided and supported.
