The study aimed to explore the attitude of technology education students towards entrepreneurship. This study was descriptive in nature; quantitative approach was adopted and survey method was used to conduct the study. Census sampling technique was used to select the sample which comprised 135 students from the Department of Technology Education at Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore. The Entrepreneurial Intention (EI) scale was adapted for data collection which was developed by Lee Wei Ni, Lim Bao Ping, Lim Li Ying, Ng HueiSern and Wong JiaLihin (2012) . The original version consists of 32 items, however after piloting the EI scale comprised of 26 items based on five-point Likert type scale. Data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The findings reveal that the students of technology education demonstrate positive attitude towards entrepreneurship. It is concluded that there is no significant difference in students’ attitude towards entrepreneurship in terms of gender and session. However, there is significant difference between the attitude of the morning and self-supporting students towards entrepreneurship. It is suggested that seminars and workshops should be conducted by educational institutions to develop the entrepreneurial skills among students for their career advancement.  \nKeywords: Attitude, Entrepreneurship, Technology education  \n* Assistant Professors, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.  \nEmail: [tariqedu71@yahoo.com](tariqedu71@yahoo.com)  \n** Assistant Professors, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.  \n*** MTE student, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore.  \nIntroduction  \nIn past few decades, entrepreneurship has been emerging as a popular research topic due to its positive effects on a country’s economic progress in terms of growth and poverty reduction (Lunati, Schlochtern, & Sargsyan, 2010 & Kuratko, 2005) .

It is the talent of a person to turn ideas into a small business (Barringer & Ireland, 2010) . Entrepreneurship is anenergetic process of vision, change, and creation.
