Abstract

This research describes how entrepreneurial intention is developed, giving the importance of creative activities and projects provided by universities. Thus, the antecedents of entrepreneurial intention were investigated among undergraduate students of a mid-size governmental university in Thailand. It was argued in this framework that creative activities organized by the university or the college contributed to instilling entrepreneurial intention in undergraduate students. Self-administered survey data from 400 undergraduate students were collected and analyzed using the structural equation model technique to verify the hypothesis relationships. The findings indicated that creative activities supported by the university significantly affected entrepreneurial intention among undergraduate students via entrepreneurial self-efficacy. Additional results also revealed the significant influence of individual growth mindset and individual creativity among students, which correlate well with entrepreneurial self-efficacy. The paper concludes with suggestions for extended research and implications for educators and policymakers in education regarding entrepreneurial intention strategies development among students.
