家庭對個人的影響深遠且持久。雖然教育通常被視為打破社會階級複製的有力手段。然而，即使是進入頂尖大學的學生，這種影響仍可能存在，亦可能會塑造他們對接受進一步教育或創業冒險的渴望。
本研究探討國立清華大學 (NTHU) 學生的家庭背景，分析其社會經濟地位 (Socioeconomic Status, 以下簡稱SES) 指數和家庭財務狀況，對學習經驗和未來發展之影響。我們利用2016年至2019年間國立清華大學校務研究中心的數據，據此設定七組迴歸模型來探索影響國立清華大學學生追求高等教育或創業決定的因素。此外，我們分析家庭背景如何改變其他決策，例如在學習期間從事高工時兼職工作或參加學校社團，以及這些決策對他們的學業表現和生涯規劃的影響。本研究發現家庭社經地位指數顯著影響學生在校時對於社團及兼職工作的選擇，然而對創業的抱負以及進修的意願則無顯著影響。
因此，學校及政府教育單位應提升對低收入家庭學生的輔導及支持活動，優化資源分配，實施合理獎學金和創業補助，以促進教育及生涯發展的公平。學生自身也應透過積極的學習和有意識的行動，從而改變學習經驗並為生涯規劃帶來更多可能。

The influence of family on individuals is profound and enduring. Although education is often seen as a powerful means to break the cycle of social reproduction, this influence can persist even among students at elite universities (such as NTHU), shaping their aspirations for further education or entrepreneurial ventures.
This study explores the family backgrounds of students at National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) and analyzes the impact of their Socioeconomic Status (SES) index and family financial situation on their learning experiences and future development. We utilized data from the NTHU Center for Institutional Research collected between 2016 and 2019, setting up seven regression models to examine the factors influencing NTHU students' decisions to pursue higher education or entrepreneurship. Additionally, we analyzed how family background affects other decisions, such as working high hours in part-time jobs or participating in school clubs during their studies, and how these decisions impact their academic performance and career planning.
Our findings indicate that the SES index significantly influences students' choices regarding club participation and part-time work during their studies, but has no significant impact on their entrepreneurial aspirations or willingness to pursue further education. Therefore, schools and government educational authorities should enhance counseling and support activities for students from low-income families, optimize resource allocation, and implement reasonable scholarship and entrepreneurship subsidy programs to promote fairness in education and career development. Students themselves should also engage in proactive learning and conscious actions to change their learning experiences and create more possibilities for their career planning.
