Abstract

This study used both qualitative and quantitative research methods, surveying 325 respondents. Initially, the research model included seven factors that could influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions: university, government, support organizations, funding providers, research organizations, large enterprises, and service providers. The results from the
multivariate regression analysis identified four significant factors: universities, funding providers, research organizations, and large enterprises. The study also found that three variables—government, support organizations, and service providers—were not statistically significant. In conclusion, the key factors within the entrepreneurial ecosystem of multidisciplinary universities that influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions are the university, funding providers, research organizations, and large enterprises.
