Abstract

Entrepreneur must adapt and still be able to provide products or services required by their customers in a fast-changing business environment. Entrepreneurs should assess their competence and capability and students should do the same if they want to start their new business. Students business programs has a business orientation to start with and do business with intention, confidence, and knowledge at their disposal during their studies. This study aims to determine the level of student or individual entrepreneurial orientation (IEO) and their self-esteem towards entrepreneurial intention. This study examines entrepreneurial intentions in students in finding and using business opportunities by optimizing their potential. We want to test the differences in the IEO, self-esteem and entrepreneurial intentions that occur in the 2015 and 2016 program student business classes at Telkom University. We conducted pair t-test because there were differences in some subjects of entrepreneurship that could lead to differences in self-esteem and individual entrepreneurial orientation (IEO) towards their entrepreneurial intentions. The survey through questionnaire distribution shows a strong correlation between IEO and self-esteem and that the 2016 class scores higher than the 2015 class for IEO scores and self-esteem towards their entrepreneurial intentions. This study shows that dimensions such as Risk Taking, Innovation, and Pro-activity in the IEO and dimensions of performance, appearance, and social dimensions in the self-esteem variable in the 2016 class are higher than the 2015 class towards their entrepreneurial intentions.
