Abstrak

This study examines the influence of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial interest and mental readiness for global business challenges among university students. Employing a quantitative explanatory approach, data were collected from 155 respondents between September and October 2026 and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicate that entrepreneurship education positively influences entrepreneurial interest (β = 0.708, p < 0.001, R² = 0.502) and mental readiness (β = 0.766, p < 0.001, R² = 0.587). Both hypotheses were supported. The study contributes to entrepreneurship education research by highlighting entrepreneurial interest and psychological preparedness as complementary educational outcomes. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening experiential learning, resilience, and adaptability in entrepreneurship education.
