Purpose: This study aims to examine the moderating role of gender on entrepreneurial education, family support and self-efficacy in influencing the entrepreneurial career choice among university students Research Methodology: Data collected from 374 respondents was analyzed using correlation and regression analysis. Findings: Entrepreneurial education, family support, and self-efficacy notably impact students' choice of entrepreneurial careers. Gender has a slight moderating effect on entrepreneurial education and self-efficacy but not on family support. Limitations of the study: This study focuses on a single university in a specific location overlooking the diverse factors influencing entrepreneurial career choices in different educational and cultural settings. The cross-sectional design hinders a complete understanding of sustained entrepreneurial intentions over time. Practical implications: Institutions promoting entrepreneurship should enhance self-efficacy and provide comprehensive support systems to assist aspiring entrepreneurs. Consistent family support is also required for influencing students' career choices, regardless of gender. Originality/ Value : The study examines the intricate link between entrepreneurial education, family support, self-efficacy, gender moderation, and students' entrepreneurial career choices, offering valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to foster an entrepreneurial mindset among students.
