<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyse the influence of self-efficacy, career planning, and parental support on the work readiness of undergraduate students in the Economic Education Study Programme at Universitas Lampung, both partially and simultaneously. A quantitative method was employed using a descriptive–verificative, ex post facto, and survey approach. The population comprised 182 active students from the 2022 and 2023 cohorts. A sample of 125 students was determined through the Slovin formula and selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected through a semantic differential scale questionnaire and were analysed using simple and multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 25. The findings indicate that self-efficacy has a positive and significant effect on work readiness, contributing 4.1%. Career planning has a positive and significant effect and emerges as the most dominant variable, contributing 35.9%. Parental support also has a positive and significant effect, contributing 25.4%. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence work readiness, with a combined contribution of 45%. These results highlight the strategic role of psychological, personal, and family-related factors in strengthening students’ preparedness for entering the labour market.]]>
