dc.description.abstractThe researcher set out to find the relationship between entrepreneurship competencies, psychological capital, social capital and self-employment of graduates. The study was guided by the following research objectives; to examine the relationship between entrepreneurship competencies and social capital, to examine the relationship between psychological capital and social capital, to examine the relationship between social capital and self-employment and to examine the relationship between entrepreneurship competencies and self-employment. IX To obtain this, a cross sectional survey was used in the selection of 411 self-employed graduates from Mukono and Buikwe districts. The collected data was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Scientists (SPSS). The results showed that there was a positive significant relationship between, entrepreneurship competencies and social capital, psychological capital and social capital, social capital and self-employment. There was also a significant relationship between entrepreneurship competencies and self-employment. Results show that entrepreneurship competencies, psychological capital and social capital account for 71.6% of the self-employed graduates. The study therefore recommended that graduates need to acquire more social capital and psychological capital in order for them to get into self-employment.en_US
