Abstract

— This research explores the interplay of female student's perceptions, societal norms, resource accessibility, and institutional support in shaping female student's entrepreneurial attitudes and intentions. Employing a convenient sampling method, a validated questionnaire was administered to a cohort of female students, capturing dimensions related to the viability of entrepreneurship, societal norms, resource availability, mentorship, and educational institution support. A Cronbach's alpha analysis confirmed the internal reliability of the questionnaire. This study contributes empirically and theoretically by uncovering influential entrepreneurial attitudes and intentions determinants. The findings confirm the importance of fostering a perception of entrepreneurship as a viable career option and the significance of support mechanisms, including resources and mentorship. The positive influence of societal norms challenges established gender-role assumptions. Acknowledging limitations in sample diversity and the cross-sectional design, this study calls for longitudinal and qualitative investigations to provide more comprehensive insights
