摘要：The competition between businesses allusively opens up opportunities for entrepreneurs to continually find ways to enhance their product strategy in marketing and quality through innovation. However, for some students, venturing in entrepreneurship can help them receive extra income. Students nowadays are very keen to get involved in entrepreneurship while still studying. Simultaneously, some of them have been exposed to entrepreneurship since childhood. As the number of female students exceeds male students in higher education institutions, the purpose of this study is to determine the readiness of female students in entrepreneurship and time management effectiveness between learning and business. A cross-sectional survey was employed in this study, and data were collected from 386 female students in Malaysian Higher Education Institutions (response rate = 96.5%). Using Regression Analysis, ANOVA and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), the study found that family support, business education, and entrepreneurship skills influence female students' readiness to become entrepreneurs. Besides, only 10.8 per cent of students have effectiveness in time management. To produce a successful female student as an entrepreneur, the government needs to provide motivation and psychological training to manage their time effectively. The balance between business and learning for these students is crucial and needs to emphasize by many parties. This is essential if Malaysia wants to produce highly educated female entrepreneurs.
