Abstract
.The purpose of study was to investigate the effect of undergraduate curriculum quality on students’ entrepreneurial intention, considering the role of mediators of entrepreneurial inspiration and entrepreneurial creativity. The study was an applied research and based on the analysis of structural equations. The statistical population was undergraduate students of Urmia National University in the first semester of the academic year 2022-2023 in faculties of engineering, art and agriculture. A questionnaire was used to collect data and the reliability and validity of it was confirmed and randomly distributed to the students. Finally 341 questionnaires were examined. The results indicated that there is a positive and significant relationship between the curriculum quality and entrepreneurial intentions (P< 0.01). Entrepreneurial inspiration (P< 0.01) and entrepreneurial creativity (P< 0.01) also play a mediating role in this relationship. It is recommended that in the study of infrastructure of entrepreneurial purposes and in the educational and developmental policies, attention should be paid to curriculum quality in terms of connection with the industry. For development of entrepreneurial skills with the knowledge of individual and environmental foundations, expansion of the emotional and cognitive intention of students to become an entrepreneur should be considered.
