The main purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of entrepreneurship profile on entrepreneurship intention considering the moderating role of university environment. This applied research is in correlational type in terms of method. The statistical population consisted of all 130 students of Entrepreneurship Department in the University of Sistan and Baluchestan. A sample of 95 people was selected using simple random sampling and Morgan table. The data gathering tool was questionnaire. The reliability of the questionnaire was examined by two features of combined reliability and factor loading coefficients and was confirmed by using convergent and divergent validity. Partial least squares method in Smart PLS 3 software was used to investigate measurement and structural models as well as research hypothesis. The research findings did not confirm the moderating role of university environment toward the relationship between entrepreneurship profile and students' entrepreneurship intention but the relatively strong positive impact of the entrepreneurship profile on the students' entrepreneurship intention was confirmed. In other words, by strengthening the four variables of self-efficacy, risk-taking, innovation and sociability, which are considered as entrepreneurial profiles in this research, the entrepreneurial intention of the studied people can be increased. Also, the relationship between university environment and entrepreneurial intention was rejected; This means respondents believe that university environment does not play a role in creating entrepreneurial intention. According to the results, holding several and varied educational workshops in order to create an enchanting and stimulating environment and also inviting successful and top entrepreneurs as role models in teaching entrepreneurship is recommended.
