Purpose: The study aimed to present the entrepreneurial intentions of students and to identify factors that motivate and limit these initiatives. Design/methodology/approach: The research used literature studies and quantitative surveys. This study used a set of primary data obtained by a direct survey using a structured survey questionnaire. The survey was conducted in 2019. The respondents were students of economic studies from the Koszalin University of Technology. Findings: Many students are willing to start a business in the future. They are motivated, in particular, by the desire for greater professional independence and the opportunity to implement their business ideas. Students see self-employment as an opportunity to earn a higher income. The challenge in starting a business is the lack of sufficient financial resources and the lack of sufficient knowledge and skills in running a business. Increasing students' motivation to start a business is possible by improving existing policies to support entrepreneurship, especially among young people. In addition, an important element that can stimulate the entrepreneurial spirit among students is adapting teaching programs to students' needs in terms of acquiring practical skills in starting and running their enterprise, including deepening knowledge in the field of financial knowledge and skills. Research limitations/implications: The research adopted a purposive sampling method, which has its limitations. Practical implications: The research results may serve as an inspiration for further analyzes of factors determining the initiatives of entrepreneurial students, and may also be used in practice by various types of organizations supporting entrepreneurial initiatives among young people at the local, regional and national level. Originality/value: The article extends research on student entrepreneurship by presenting an international comparison of student entrepreneurship motives and challenges in developed and developing countries and enriches existing research on the identification of entrepreneurial initiatives among Polish students.
