Abstract

The collapse of the economy in various countries was caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Opportunities and challenges to rise from adversity are the main focus. The entrepreneurial sector is one of the main pillars in the revival of the national economy. The purpose of this study was to identify entrepreneurship education in higher education as an effort to increase students’ interest in entrepreneurship in an effort to provide entrepreneurial skills. Data collection was carried out using instruments in the form of documentation, observation and giving questionnaires to students who had or are currently attending entrepreneurship lectures. Data analysis used multiple linear regression to determine its effect on the variables used. The preliminary study of this research shows the enthusiasm of students in taking entrepreneurship courses. This is influenced by the desire of students to have the expertise and skills to become an entrepreneur. In addition, the desire to have a business after becoming a graduate so as not to be confused with looking for work is the main reason for students. Especially with the COVID-19 pandemic which is not yet known when it will end, they are even more enthusiastic about the support of digital technology to make it easier for them to carry out business activities. Thus, it is hoped that the emergence of new entrepreneurs will have a good impact on economic growth and assist the government in opening up job opportunities and reducing unemployment. The results showed that entrepreneurship education had no effect on student entrepreneurship skills.
