LTD.10.18063/CEF.v3i11.1682ArticleThe Relationship between College Students’ Entrepreneurial Will and Social Responsibility in the Process of Urbanizationhttps://artdesignp.com/journal/CEF/3/11/10.18063/CEF.v3i11.1682ZhaoMenglu20253112025-12-20As urbanization accelerates, the relationship between entrepreneurial aspirations and social responsibility among college students, a vital demographic, has emerged as a key research focus. This study examines the interplay between entrepreneurial motivation and social responsibility in urbanized contexts through theoretical analysis. The findings reveal that while economic factors influence students’ entrepreneurial intentions, social responsibility significantly shapes their motivations. Students with strong social responsibility tend to pursue ventures with societal value and long-term impact, rather than merely seeking personal wealth accumulation. By analyzing urbanization’s effects on entrepreneurial environments, the paper proposes educational approaches to cultivate social responsibility, aiming to foster a win-win scenario for both social and economic development in student entrepreneurship.Urbanization, College students, Entrepreneurial intention, Social responsibility, Innovation and entrepreneurship, Social value
