N2 - Entrepreneurship education equips students with competencies to manage the
challenging circumstances inherent in entrepreneurial activity. One such competency
is resilience, the capacity to address, adapt to, and overcome adversity,
uncertainty, and change. Drawing upon the theory of planned behavior, we examine
one specific entrepreneurship education intervention designed to increase
resilience and investigate its effect on entrepreneurial intention. Using a quasi-
experimental design, we find that our intervention has an indirect effect on
entrepreneurial intention through resilience and the antecedents of intention
(perceived behavioral control, attitude, and subjective norm). This study
contributes new ideas for learning methods to foster resilience and entrepreneurial
intention, such as the design-thinking approach or learning from failure.
