The government promotes entrepreneurship among university students to foster economic independence. Participation in entrepreneurship programs involves uncertainties, including selection failure, funding rejection, and administrative consequences, making risk taking propensity an important topic of study. This research examined the relationship between parent career behavior and risk taking propensity among Universitas Syiah Kuala students participating in entrepreneurship programs. A quantitative correlational design was employed using accidental sampling with 238 active students. Risk taking propensity was measured using the General Risk Propensity Scale, while parent career behavior was assessed using the Parent career behavior Checklist. Data were analyzed using the Pearson Product-Moment correlation. The findings revealed a significant but weak positive relationship between parent career behavior and risk taking propensity (r = .175, p = .007). These results indicate that higher perceived parental career behavior is associated with a greater tendency among students to take risks.
