Abstract: There is a growing body of literature arguing that individuals who have taken entrepreneurship courses generally intend to start a business. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of relevant courses on the entrepreneurial intentions of students in agriculture, using Ajzen’s (1991) the theory of planned behavior (TPB). The results show that the entrepreneurship education program has affected the student’s perceived behavior control and anticipated positive and negative effect.
