“…Furthermore, Rauch and Hulsink (2015) also stated the need for more academic inquiry into EE-EI across students from diverse disciplines specifically from science and engineering background. The integration of EE into engineering curriculum is relatively a new endeavor across technical institutions, and the literature on the outcomes of EE among engineering graduates is very thin (Mukta, 2018;Nair et al, 2020). This also calls for investigating the EE and EI connect among the engineering students in India.…”

PurposeThe current study assesses the contribution of entrepreneurship education (EE) in strengthening entrepreneurial attitudes (EAs) and entrepreneurial intentions (EIs) among engineering graduates in India.Design/methodology/approachCross-sectional data were collected through an electronic questionnaire from 340 engineering students. Structural equation modeling was performed for hypothesis testing through SmartPLS4 software.FindingsThe findings demonstrated that EE, EA and EI are positively and significantly correlated. However, the moderation effect of gender on EE–EI linkage was found to be insignificant.Research limitations/implicationsThe study provides comprehensive insights to understand EE effectiveness on students' EI and further opens the path for future researchers to investigate how the inclusion of other constructs in theory of planned behavior and human capital theory can raise the EI among students. Future research should target a larger sample size comprising students from diverse educational streams.Practical implicationsThe findings of this research offer various practical contributions for educational establishments, policymakers and the government in formulating constructive educational interventions that fully trigger the student's EIs.Originality/valueThis study adds to the scarce theoretical examination of EE–EI using the human capital approach in developing countries. In addition, this study is highly relevant to the scarce theoretical and empirical support for investigating the contribution of EE in HEIs in India.

“…Entrepreneurship interests which have started to appear on the students would need to be supported by the readiness of the process of entrepreneurial learning at the classroom by teachers (Brendle et al, 2018;Cincera et al, 2018). Nevertheless, the reality is more educators teaching the theory without approaching the field implementation (Mani, 2018), so, it has a bad impact on the formation of personality and character of student's entrepreneurship in higher education. Implementation of science and technology for entrepreneurial learning with the production-based learning approach in creating an entrepreneurial personality of students in higher education is needed; entrepreneurial learning activities with production-based learning approach facilitate students to have a strong personality (Ganefri and Hidayat, 2015;Ganefri et al, 2017a, b).…”

The abilities to survive and job opportunities for graduates of higher education are now very limited because of the transformation of workers who replaced by many machines and information technology. This study aims to explore and describe the student's personality in the implementation of science and technology for entrepreneurship with a production-based learning approach to higher education. The personality of the students is very determining the direction of success in the future, especially how students think and manage reviews their mindset. Implementation of entrepreneurship education and training in higher education, gradually changing the student's mindset from graduation for seeking work turned into graduation for creating jobs. In entrepreneurship, learning is not only a given theory but also there are skills and practices of entrepreneurship through the approach of the production-based learning in higher education. Method of research used was descriptive quantitative and field observation in depth to 46 students. The personality of the students who are associated with the entrepreneurial character is analyzed from ten aspects roommates are divided into three playing parts, including, communication skills (speaking skills, speaking qualities, speaking content, sense of humor), added value (reliable have been more potential) and teamwork with others (willing to go together). Based on the results of the descriptive statistical analysis with SPSS 17.0, it shows that the personality condition of students in the implementation of science and technology for entrepreneurship with the production-based learning approaches in higher education ware very good. Therefore, it concludes that the personality of students who have the character of entrepreneurship in the development of education and entrepreneurship training in higher education is needed, so, it is expected that the graduates of higher education are able to create jobs.
