Abstract
Engineering education now emphasises business ownership and entrepreneurship. “What are the key factors influencing engineering students' intentions to start their businesses?” asks this literature review. Several scholarly journals and databases met the inclusion requirements after a thorough search. Personality, education, society, and social networks influence engineering students' entrepreneurial ambition, according to the research. Creativity, risk-taking, and self-efficacy favourably affect entrepreneurial intentions. Research projects and entrepreneurship classes can also impact students' company startup views. Finally, families, friends, peers, and mentors can influence kids' entrepreneurial ambitions. This study has important implications for engineering educators and policymakers seeking to promote entrepreneurship among engineering students, including designing more effective entrepreneurship education programmes and informing engineering entrepreneurship policy.
