Abstract
Under a series of preferential national policies, college graduates returning home to start businesses have shown a thriving momentum. Their active participation has supplemented and strengthened rural vitalization efforts and promoted development in this area. In order to clarify the relationship between college students' intentions to return home for entrepreneurship and factors such as local environment, national policies, industry development and personal attributes, logit models were used to conduct an empirical analysis on survey data of over 1,700 current college students regarding their intentions and influencing factors for starting businesses back home. The results show that place of origin, education level, national policies, and choice of industry have significant impacts on college students' intentions for returning home to start businesses. Suggestions are proposed from three different aspects to facilitate college graduates going back home for employment and entrepreneurship.
