Results, based on the analysis of data collected from 409 respondents, showed that entrepreneurial passion positively affect students’ entrepreneurial intentions. Further, results indicate that entrepreneurial passion positively influences entrepreneurial self-efficacy and entrepreneurial attitude, which in turn, shapes entrepreneurial career intentions.
