dc.description.abstractThe present study examines how students in Goa monetize their skills while pursuing their education and evaluates their attitudes, motivations, challenges and institutional support related to skill monetization. With the rise of the digital economy, freelancing platforms and entrepreneurial opportunities, students increasingly engage in income-generating activities such as tutoring, content creation, digital services and creative work. The study is based on primary data collected from 288 students using a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistical tools were used to analyze the demographic profile, types of skills monetized, earning patterns, motivations, and challenges faced by students. The findings reveal that a significant number of students actively monetize their skills, primarily driven by financial independence, skill development and career preparation. Students demonstrated positive attitudes toward entrepreneurship and expressed interest in continuing their earning activities. However, challenges such as balancing academics and work, limited mentorship and moderate institutional support were identified. The study highlights the need for educational institutions to provide structured mentorship, entrepreneurship training and support systems to promote student entrepreneurship. The findings contribute to understanding student skill monetization and offer practical implications for enhancing entrepreneurship development among students in Goa.
