The findings revealed that entrepreneurial passion, entrepreneurial literacy, and role model inspiration were found to positively influence self-efficacy as well as entrepreneurship readiness among students in higher education. Unpredictably, the moderator project-based learning models’ implementation was shown to have an insignificant effect on the influence of entrepreneurial passion, entrepreneurial literacy, and role model inspiration toward entrepreneurship readiness among students in higher education.
