This research explores the importance of entrepreneurship education in enhancing students entrepreneurial intentions and capabilities. This study emphasizes the importance of effective entrepreneurship education that combines theoretical knowledge with practical experience, highlights the relationship between self-efficacy, attitudes towards entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurial intentions and suggests that students with higher self-efficacy are more likely to value and pursue entrepreneurial opportunities. The research approach used was quantitative. We are using a sample consisted of 359 respondents who were students who had taken entrepreneurship courses and had entrepreneurial intentions or owned businesses. Data analysis technique used SEM Analysis, which employs a confirmatory model. Furthermore, findings show that participation in entrepreneurship training and literacy programs significantly increases students confidence in their entrepreneurial abilities, thereby increasing their intention to start a new venture. The paper concludes that by equipping students with the necessary knowledge and skills, higher education institutions can effectively reduce unemployment rates and contribute to sustainable economic growth through the promotion of entrepreneurship. This study underscores the need for a paradigm shift in how students view entrepreneurship, encouraging them to become job creators rather than job seekers, ultimately leading to a more dynamic and innovative economy.

Conclusion

This research demonstrates that entrepreneurial literacy positively influences both entrepreneurial attitudes and intentions.Organizational experience, however, did not significantly impact these factors.Crucially, entrepreneurial attitude serves as a key mediator between literacy and intention, highlighting its importance in fostering entrepreneurial spirit.Therefore, institutions should prioritize developing positive entrepreneurial attitudes alongside knowledge transfer to effectively encourage students to pursue entrepreneurial ventures.

Future Research

Based on the findings, future research should investigate the specific types of organizational experiences that are most effective in cultivating entrepreneurial skills and attitudes among students. Furthermore, exploring the role of mentorship programs and industry collaborations in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application would be beneficial. Finally, a longitudinal study tracking the long-term entrepreneurial outcomes of students with varying levels of entrepreneurial literacy and experience could provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of different educational interventions. These studies should consider the influence of regional economic contexts and cultural factors on entrepreneurial success, and explore how to tailor educational programs to meet the specific needs of diverse student populations. Investigating the impact of digital entrepreneurship and the use of technology in fostering entrepreneurial skills is also crucial, given the rapidly evolving business landscape. These research directions will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the factors that drive entrepreneurial intention and success, ultimately informing the development of more effective entrepreneurship education programs.
