This study aims to identify the factors influencing the entrepreneurial interest of PGSD students at STKIP
Taman Siswa Bima. This research is descriptive in nature. The population of the study includes all active
PGSD students at STKIP Taman Siswa Bima during the 2024/2025 academic year. The sample was
determined using purposive sampling, selecting participants based on specific criteria. The criteria for the
sample were PGSD students who have an interest or experience in entrepreneurship, totaling 28 students.
The instrument used in this study was a questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using percentage
calculations. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that both internal and external factors
have a significant impact on students' entrepreneurial interest, with a slightly more positive assessment for
internal factors. The percentage of respondents who rated internal factors as "Very Good" (35.7%) was
slightly higher than those for external factors (32.14%), indicating that students' motivation and self-ability
are the main drivers in entrepreneurship. The majority of respondents rated both factors as "Good" (53.6%
for internal factors and 53.57% for external factors), suggesting that while these factors are fairly strong,
there is still room for improvement. Only a small percentage of respondents rated both factors as "Fair,"
with external factors (10.71%) slightly higher than internal factors (3.57%). Overall, this indicates that
students have a reasonably good perception of both internal and external factors in supporting their
entrepreneurial interest, though further enhancement of both aspects is still needed.
