Abstract
In accordance with the increasing attention in entrepreneurship among tourism and hospitality
students, this study aims to discover whether entrepreneurial education may influence the entrepreneurial
intention of students. A total of 668 tourism and hospitality students were used to
test our Hypothesis. The findings support the positive impact of education on entrepreneurial
intentions. In addition, empirical training is the leading factor in the formation of entrepreneurial
intention, while theoretical enhancement is an important moderating factor. Furthermore, it was
confirmed that social worth and risk-taking can strengthen the formation of entrepreneurial
intention.
