The Relationship Between Entrepreneurship Education, Attitude, and Entrepreneurial Career Choice

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between entrepreneurship education, attitudes towards entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurial career choices. In today’s rapidly changing economic environment, fostering entrepreneurial mindsets among students has become increasingly important. Entrepreneurship education plays a crucial role in shaping students’ attitudes, which in turn influences their decision to pursue an entrepreneurial career. The study investigates how exposure to entrepreneurship education impacts students' perceptions of entrepreneurship, their motivation to engage in entrepreneurial activities, and their choice to pursue entrepreneurship as a career path. Through a mixed-methods approach, the research examines both the theoretical aspects of entrepreneurship education and the practical outcomes of such education in terms of career decisions. The findings suggest that a positive attitude towards entrepreneurship, shaped by quality entrepreneurship education, significantly increases the likelihood of students opting for an entrepreneurial career.
