Abstract

This descriptive-correlational study examined entrepreneurship education for Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management (BSHM) students in General Santos City Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The research aimed to profile students, assess entrepreneurship education extent, and evaluate factors influencing entrepreneurial intentions. Employing a sample of 120 respondents, quantitative analyses included frequency distributions, percentages, means, Point-biserial correlation, Spearman's Rho, and Pearson's r. Findings revealed a predominantly female student cohort at the college level, with parents primarily employed as Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) or retirees, and students receiving monthly allowances below PHP 3,000. Entrepreneurship education was perceived as comprehensive, with 'very high extent' ratings for curriculum, program structure, extracurricular activities, pedagogical practices, and assessment. 'Very high extent' was also noted for perceived desirability, while propensity to act and perceived feasibility were rated 'high extent.' Correlation analyses indicated a significant relationship between age and entrepreneurial intention factors. Older students perceived higher desirability, feasibility, and actionable potential. It is recommended that HEIs foster interdisciplinary collaborations, integrating hospitality management with business, innovation, and technology through targeted training, industry immersion, and collaborative projects for students and faculty, enhancing BSHM graduates' entrepreneurial competencies.
