Entrepreneurship makes a huge contribution to any country's economy by providing jobs, instilling innovation, and creativity, and fostering exceptional social development. Scholars have recognized the value of entrepreneurship education since it has a significant impact on students by instilling a feeling of entrepreneurship in them. Entrepreneurial passion refers to the good and intense sensations a person gets from participating in activities related to their role as an entrepreneur. The primary goal of this research is to determine the impact of entrepreneurial passion on social entrepreneurial intent, as well as the role of entrepreneurial self-efficacy as a mediating factor. The study developed a mediation model to further research on the relationship between entrepreneurial passion and entrepreneurial intention. The study also investigated if entrepreneurial self-efficacy plays a role in this relationship. This study's philosophical viewpoint is positivism, and the research design is descriptive and explanatory. The study relied on primary data collected using questionnaires. The study adopted a quantitative approach and to analyze the data obtained from a sample of 200 (graduate students). The study revealed that entrepreneurial passion has a positive impact on entrepreneurial intention and self-efficacy. Second, using entrepreneurial self-efficacy as a mediator, the indirect effect of entrepreneurial passion on entrepreneurial intention was significant and positive. It is therefore recommended that more emphasis be paid to Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy when attempting to build or increase Social Entrepreneurial Intent through Entrepreneurial Passion.
