Abstract:

This study attempts to explore the impact of entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial intention on college students’ entrepreneurship, so as to provide a basis for constructing the framework of college students’ entrepreneurial ability. Through empirical research, descriptive statistics and reasoning analysis were carried out on the questionnaire data of 385 respondents using SPSS 28 software. This study aims to measure the degree of satisfaction of college students’ entrepreneurship education in Pingdingshan City from three aspects: “entrepreneurship curriculum, entrepreneurship practice and entrepreneurship convenience”, and determine college students’ entrepreneurship ability from three aspects: “value creation ability”, “innovation ability” and “resource utilization ability”. To evaluate the entrepreneurial intention of college students from the aspects of “perceived desirability”, “perceived feasibility” and “behavioral tendency”, examine the relationship among the three variables of entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial ability and “entrepreneurial intention”, and put forward an effective management framework of entrepreneurial competence of college students. Through the evaluation and analysis of the correlation dimensions of the three variables, this study concludes that there is a significant positive correlation between entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial intention, that is, the better entrepreneurial education, the stronger entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial intention; The higher the entrepreneurial ability, the better the entrepreneurial education and the clear entrepreneurial intention; The stronger the entrepreneurial willingness, the higher the entrepreneurial ability and the deeper the entrepreneurial education. This paper proposes that the effective management framework of college students’ entrepreneurial competence consists of three aspects: entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial intention. Finally, on the basis of this research, the author also puts forward some relevant suggestions to promote the successful entrepreneurship of college students, which has certain empirical significance for the high-quality innovation and entrepreneurship education reform in colleges and universities.
