Abstract
In this paper we aim to classify reasons why our entrepreneurship education program turned out to have made only a few participants decide to become entrepreneurs. In order to accomplish the objective we conducted questionnaire surveys among graduate students of the entrepreneur course at Utsunomiya University. The findings are classified as follows:
1) The vocational education provided at Utsunomiya University has not been sufficient enough for the students to develop their own views of profession and career. Our career-oriented course was not necessarily to train students as entrepreneurs.
2) Graduate students do not show much interest in enterprise and industry or after all the society itself. So they could not find any proper opportunities for them to actively study and solve problems confronted in our region.
