Abstract

At a ratio of 3.47% of the entire population, the level of entrepreneurship in Indonesia remains relatively low. This number lags behind when compared to the rest of ASEAN. College students are the most likely targets for increased entrepreneurship. But the fact is that students are still hesitant to start their own businesses. As a result, the aims of this study are to assess characteristics that contribute to student entrepreneurial intention using the expanded Entrepreneurial Event Model (EEM) with variable self-confidence. This study employed a quantitative descriptive method with a judgmental sampling strategy on 121 participants who matched the research requirements. The research framework was examined using PLS-SEM in the study. SmartPLS software version 3.3.5 is used to process the data. The study results also corroborate the study's finding that perceived entrepreneurial desirability and perceived entrepreneurial desirability have a positive and significant influence on entrepreneurial self-confidence. Moreover, perceived entrepreneurial attractiveness and entrepreneurial self-confidence have a direct positive influence on entrepreneurial intention, but entrepreneurial feasibility has a negligible effect.
