Entrepreneurship is a process of creating realizing values for entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurial activities play quite important roles in promoting economic and social development. While the development of entrepreneurship in Malaysia and Nigeria is growing very fast, there have been few studies on entrepreneurship and the factors that influence intentions to become entrepreneurs. In the field of entrepreneurial research, the motivation factors which lead people to leave their comfort zone, take financial risks, abandon their high-income jobs to pursue their own business is always an interesting topic. For these reasons, in recent decades, the problems of entrepreneurship have become a focus for many scholars and policy makers. This paper examines the attributes that influences entrepreneurship intention in Malaysia and Nigeria. Data were collected from universities of the two countries. This study applies a quantitative approach with statistical techniques using descriptive statistics.
