Abstract

With the help of SPSS and Amos software, this study conducted an in-depth investigation of the factors influencing the entrepreneurial intention of potential independent entrepreneurs of college students in the post epidemic era by using questionnaires and mathematical analysis. The analysis of sample data shows that: potential entrepreneurs’ own elements, including entrepreneurial ability and entrepreneurial motivation, as well as the entrepreneurial environment have a positive and significant effect on the entrepreneurial willingness of college students; entrepreneurial self-efficacy can significantly and positively affect the entrepreneurial willingness to promote college students’ choice of starting a business; entrepreneurial self-efficacy plays a crucial role in mediating the impact of entrepreneurial skills, motivation, and the environment on an individual’s willingness to initiate their own business venture. Suggestions: Relevant government departments and colleges and universities should work together efficiently to improve the regulations on entrepreneurship, bankruptcy, and intellectual property protection, improve the financial environment, and cultivate the entrepreneurial resilience of college students, so as to increase the willingness of college students to start their own businesses.
