Abstract

In the uncertainty era and advancement of technology, students’ ability to face challenges and adapt strategically is an important aspect of developing entrepreneurial potential. This paper aims to empirically study the linkage between entrepreneurial learning and entrepreneurial orientation towards the adversity quotient (AQ) through the agility strategy as a mediator in supporting the sustainable development goals (SDGs) in higher education. This study involved a quantitative approach with a survey method, incorporating students from various entrepreneurship study programs in higher education. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results indicated that entrepreneurial learning and orientation are two determinants for strategic agility and students' AQ. In addition, strategic agility was shown to mediate the connection between entrepreneurial learning and AQ. The results contribute to enrich the literature on entrepreneurship in higher education and support the SDGs' achievement, primarily SGD-4 (Quality Education) and SDG-8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). © The Author(s) 2025.
