| Summary: | This study is done to look into the formation of 'Generic
Skills' among students of Higher Learning Institutes (HLI)
in Malaysia, through the fostering of entrepreneurial skills. The study sample of 480 first degree students from
the sixth semester are taken from the Malaysian Technical
University Network or MTUN comprising of Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP), Universiti Teknikal Malaysia
Melaka (UTeM), Universiti Tun Hussein Onn (UTHM) and
Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UNiMAP). In the meantime,
researchers have used the three-layer group sampling.
Then, the study data were analysed using the Statistical
Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 19.0 in
order to obtain the value of the mean, standard deviation
and Pearson s Correlation. The study outcome points to
the moderately strong relationship, significant between
the value of trust with the mastery of entrepreneurial
skills. Meanwhile, accountability shows a very strong
significance with the entrepreneurial skills. Finally,
the study outcome demonstrates the level of mastery of
students' entrepreneurial skills remains at a high level. All in all, this study concludes that there exists a significant correlation between the human capital with the mastery of entrepreneurial skills which needs to be given due attention to elevate the performance of the university and students' potential. |
