The Effect of Entrepreneurship Education, Entrepreneurial Opportunity and Personality on Entrepreneurial Intentions among University Students

Although entrepreneurial intention has been widely researched, the results of empirical research have been mixed. Little is yet known about the way in which entrepreneurial intentions are formed by the effects of the individual and combination of entrepreneurship education, entrepreneurial opportunity and proactive personality. The applicability of extant literature in local context and perspectives remain unclear. Therefore, this research will attempt to investigate the effects and shed some light on this interesting and important phenomenon based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) (Ajzen, 1991). Survey questionnaire will be deployed to collect data from university students. The data will be then analysed using Structural Equation Modeling to test three propositions derived from the conceptual model. The findings are expected to support the propositions. The findings will hold important implications for not only policymakers, scholars, but also practitioners in new venture creation,rebuilding and rejuvenation of existing firms
