These results shows that education and skills training are crucial for increasing students entrepreneurial interest. This study underscores the need for higher education institutions, particularly in Indonesia, to strengthen entrepreneurship curricula, enhance vocational training, and foster motivational factors to better prepare students for entrepreneurial careers.
