Furthermore, entrepreneurial success as a consequence of entrepreneurial quality was also investigated. Entrepreneurial quality among student is important to be studied as they can help in the survival as well as a succession of the business. The role of entrepreneurship Centre was added in this study to represent the mediating factor. Apparently the framework suggests that psychosocial factors have positively affected to entrepreneurial quality. Considering entrepreneurship Centre as the medium within the relationship, the mediating effect of it is to be investigated. From the review of literatures, hypotheses were developed to suggest the relationship between the psychosocial factors, the role of entrepreneurship Centre and entrepreneurial quality by choosing HEI in Malaysia as the research sample.
