Determinants of Entrepreneurial Intention Among Undergraduate Students in Malaysia

This paper aims to identify the determinants of entrepreneurial intention among undergraduate students. Since most literature agreed that entrepreneurial intention can be determined by using Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), this theory is used as a theoretical framework in this study. The independent variables of this study consist of perceived educational support, perceived relational support, perceived structural support, personal attitude, and perceived behavioral control. This theoretical framework is verified on 351 undergraduate students in one of the Public University in Malaysia. The results found that personal attitude, perceived behavioural control, and perceived relational support are the predictors to entrepreneurial intention.
