Abstract

Scholars have acknowledged the influence of university support on students’ entrepreneurial intention and behavior. However, the extended literature showed the relationship between university support and social entrepreneurship intention to be inconsistent. To further the understanding of this issue, this paper attempts to examine how university support influences social entrepreneurship intention among 206 university students in Malaysia. Through a structural equation modelling analysis, the authors confirmed that university support - business development support, concept support and education support directly and indirectly related to attitudinal constructs and intention. Overall, this research suggests university should be a great platform for students not only to excel in entrepreneurial theory but also in practicality to capture entrepreneurial opportunities.
