In recent years, the topic of entrepreneurship education has received a lot of attention. The main reason for this is that the increase in the number of entrepreneurs in the society reduces problems such as unemployment, poverty and improper distribution of wealth, and it also leads to the improvement of living standards and regional development. The aim of the current research is to investigate the effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention with regard to the mediating role of entrepreneurial mindset. The statistical population of the present study includes the students in the entrepreneurship classes of the Islamic Azad University, Bandar Abbas branch in the fall of 1401, who were a total of 247 people, and among them, 150 people were selected as the statistical sample of the study using Cochran's formula. In the current research, the data collection tool was questionnaire. The data analysis of the present research was done using SPSS version 26 and Smart-PLS version 3 software at two descriptive and inferential levels. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that entrepreneurship education has an indirect and significant effect on entrepreneurial intention through the intermediary variable of entrepreneurial mindset, and entrepreneurship education indirectly explains 35% of the changes in the entrepreneurial intention variable. Moreover, the entrepreneurship education variable did not have a significant effect directly on entrepreneurial intention. The results of the study show that entrepreneurship education can pave the way for the development of entrepreneurial undertakings. The present study has practical recommendations for politicians and planners in this field.
