Abstract

This study aims to scientifically evaluate the impact of self-efficacy, creativity, social media usage, and entrepreneurial motivation on students’ entrepreneurial tendencies. This study employs a quantitative methodology, utilising primary data from 100 current students enrolled in the Management Accounting program at Politeknik Negeri Batam who have successfully completed entrepreneurship courses. The sample approach utilises the purposive sampling technique. Data was acquired via the distribution of questionnaires and analysed using SmartPLS version 3.0 for instrument and hypothesis testing. This research empirically establishes that self-efficacy markedly elevates students’ interest in entrepreneurship, but creativity has an insignificant beneficial impact, and social media usage exerts a favourable yet insignificant effect on students’ interest in entrepreneurship. The student's interest in entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial motivation has a significant and positive influence. .
