Education, cultural values and personal attitudes are the social factors that can influence directly individual’s intention of Entrepreneurship either negatively or positively, but the moderating and the mediating effects of those variables are not considered, identified, measured and investigated by the former studies. The main objective of this study was to examine the mediating factors of cultural values and personal attitudes between entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial intention in case of Ethiopian universities’ undergraduate Business management and entrepreneurship department students using cross-sectional data collected from 302 students i.e. from 1st,2nd and 3rd year Kotebe Metropolitan University and Dambi Dollo University during the study year 2020/21, and the study used census survey method through questionnaires. The structural equation model (SEM) was applied in order to investigate the direct, and moderating effects of entrepreneurial education on entrepreneurial intention using maximum likelihood estimation. The finding shows that students’ cultural values have a significant positive mediating effect between entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial intention. In addition to that for the students who have enough entrepreneurial education EE (knowledge) had higher and significant direct effects on their attitudes of entrepreneurial intention, and had higher and significant effects on their attitudes of entrepreneurial intention through the mediator cultural values and personal attitudes. Students with entrepreneurial education had significant and higher effect on their attitudes of seeking opportunity SO and capability belief CB through the mediators of cultural values and personal attitudes.
