Abstract
College entrepreneurial talents are the potential power of entrepreneurial activity, and their core competencies have directly decisive impacts on entrepreneurship. Based on literature research, this paper constructs core competencies of entrepreneurial talents from four dimensions, namely, entrepreneurial awareness, entrepreneurial knowledge, entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial quality. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis are used to verify the dimension of scale and analytic hierarchy process is applied to explore the importance of each core competency. It is found that college entrepreneurial talents are weak in entrepreneurial awareness and unfaithful in entrepreneurial attitude, that their entrepreneurial ability and quality are heavily weighted but of low level, that they develop in a balanced way as a whole and have abundant entrepreneurial knowledge after comparing the core competencies of college entrepreneurial talents with those of entrepreneurs by using the questionnaire survey. Therefore, colleges and universities should carry out tribulations training, organize entrepreneurs to exchange their entrepreneurial experiences with students, implement entrepreneurial education, promote entrepreneurial practice, implement entrepreneurial policies and provide opportunities for entrepreneurship.
