Background. Entrepreneurship enables a nurse to create value by recognizing and acting on 
opportunities, making decisions with limited information, and remaining adaptable and 
resilient in conditions that are frequently uncertain and complex. Aim of the study: To 
assess the relation between nursing students' tendencies for entrepreneurship and career 
adaptability. Subjects and Method: Design: A descriptive correlation design was applied. 
Setting: Faculty of Nursing, Tanta University. Subjects: the proportion of the number of 
nursing students (n=1028) was included in this study. Tools: Two tools for data collection 
were used, the first University Students' Entrepreneurship Tendency Scale and the second, 
The Career Adaptabilities Scale. Results: Around half (49.70%) of nursing students had a 
high level of entrepreneurship tendencies. High percent (78.60%) of nursing students had 
high level of career adaptability. Conclusion: a positive statistically significant correlation 
was found between nursing students' overall entrepreneurship tendencies and their overall 
career adaptability. Recommendations: Establish entrepreneurial courses that are 
interdisciplinary at the university and conduct events, workshops, and methodologies for the 
nursing students to acquire leadership skills to be an entrepreneur.
