Abstract: This study aims to analyze the role of entrepreneurial education, university environment, on student intention for entrepreneurship. The analysis was conducted using an extended and modified Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) model by including entrepreneurship education and the university environment as external factors that influence the basic variables in the TPB. Data were obtained through a questionnaire of 287 students at the Sumbawa University of Technology who were taking or have taken entrepreneurship courses. The data were then analyzed using the partial least square method. The results shows that entrepreneurial education and university environment affect entrepreneurial intention indirectly through perceived behavioral control and attitude towards entrepreneurial behavior respectively. Meanwhile, gender has a significant direct effect on entrepreneurial intention, where men have a stronger intention to become entrepreneurs.
Keywords: Entrepreneurial Intention, Entrepreneurial Education, University Environment, Theory of Planned Behavior.
