Abstract:

This research focuses on the entrepreneurial intentions of diploma students in Indonesia, drawing data from respondents from several selected universities in Indonesia. These intentions are encouraged by entrepreneurship education, which plays an important role in developing students’ entrepreneurial behaviour. In recent years, Indonesia has emphasized the integration of innovative entrepreneurial concepts into university curricula. Entrepreneurship education can also contribute to sustainable business development. In the context of mass entrepreneurship and innovation, entrepreneurship education is important for promoting the restructuring of economic and business models, increasing development momentum, and following an innovation-driven development path. It is used as a moderator in this research to examine its contribution to the relationship between the independent variables used, because previous research exploring its moderating role in higher education circles have not fully confirmed said relationship. This study used a quantitative approach, with a sample size of 582 students consisting of selected universities on the islands of Java and Sumatra, because they have an entrepreneurship curriculum with the largest number of students in Indonesia. This study used an online questionnaire as a data collection medium. Questionnaires were distributed and filled in by respondents from August 2022 to March 2023. The results of the study reveal interesting findings regarding the moderating role of entrepreneurship education in strengthening and weakening the relationship between predictors of entrepreneurial intention. This study then used the theory of planned behaviour to form a research model.

Keywords: entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial intention, theory of planned behavior
