Lastly, the psychological dimension highlighted that students perceive entrepreneurship courses as catalysts for generating new ideas, fostering creativity, and enhancing problem-solving skills. These findings underscore the multifaceted impact of entrepreneurship education, suggesting that exposure to entrepreneurship courses shapes students’ aspirations and attitudes toward career development, personal empowerment, and the entrepreneurial mindset. This study provides valuable insights for curriculum developers, emphasizing the need to integrate practical components that reinforce the personal, cultural, and psychological dimensions of entrepreneurship learning.
