ABSTRACT

Entrepreneurial education is an important strategy in producing entrepreneurial-minded students [1]. This entrepreneurial spirit needs to be nurtured through good education structure. Furthermore, education can play a key role in shaping the culture of entrepreneurship among students. Therefore, education that focuses on entrepreneurship concepts for students must be given proper attention. The need for knowledge in the field of entrepreneurship among polytechnic lecturers is very much needed as lecturers should be knowledgeable and must be prepared before teaching the students. This study aims to draw on the application of entrepreneurial elements among polytechnic lecturers in Malaysia. Data analysis involves the process of analyzing qualitative data using Nvivo software. There were 10 lecturers who lectured entrepreneur's subject being selected in the interviews including lecturers from Sultanah Bahiyah Polytechnic, Syed Syed Sirajuddin Polytechnic, Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah Polytechnic, Jelly Polytechnic, Kota Bharu Polytechnic, Mersing Polytechnic and Sultan Ibrahim Polytechnic. In that regard, the results of this study can serve as a source of reference especially to lecturers who wish to learn something beyond their area of expertise using this entrepreneurial application method. Lecturers can explore new knowledge by applying and practicing various methods of applying entrepreneurship. Thus, the process of applying for entrepreneurship will be more efficient, effective and usable during the teaching and learning process both in college and beyond college.
