According to the “Portrait of Generation Z” report released by Northeastern University, nearly two-thirds of Gen Z-aged respondents said they want to learn about entrepreneurship in college, including how to start a business. More than four in 10 expect to work for themselves at some point—nearly four times higher than the current percentage of self-employed Americans. According to the Northeastern study, Gen-Z students want colleges to:
…offer practical skills such as financial planning (85%)
…integrate internships and other professional experience into their programs (79%)
…allow them to design their own majors (72%)
…teach entrepreneurship (63%)
