The present research adopted a descriptive design study to examines MBA students’ awareness, attitudes, and engagement toward social entrepreneurship, focusing on their specialization preferences, familiarity with the concept, and involvement in social entrepreneurial initiatives. Based on data from 179 students, the research reveals varying levels of familiarity with social entrepreneurship, with the majority supporting its integration into MBA curricula. However, the findings highlight significant barriers that hinder students’ intentions to pursue social entrepreneurship. Key challenges include a lack of support, knowledge, resources, compounded by cultural and diversity issues and competition for funding. The study concludes with recommendations to create a more supportive environment for aspiring social entrepreneurs through mentorship, hands-on experience, and curriculum integration.
