Summary/Abstract: The study conducted on 67 students has shown that most investigated students wanted to run their own businesses in the nearest future. Students involved in the research said that the factors which strongly discourage them from undertaking their own business activity are mainly a high level of competition on the market and a high risk of indebtedness. It seems reasonable to promote entrepreneurship among the students by increasing awareness regarding methods to minimize risk in business activities.
