Entrepreneurship Education Curriculum Content for Undergraduate Students in Nigerian Universities

摘要

University education in Nigeria, like in other developing countries, is to produce graduates grounded in generic skill and, quality education for the nation's economic development. University curriculum therefore, should reflect research about what works, as opposed to what is popular today or tomorrow. This implies that the curriculum content should enable students to attain the society's expectations, and perhaps most importantly, their needs. This work is an attempt to identify potentially viable skills for curriculum development for entrepreneurship education at undergraduate levels in Nigerian Universities, through providing 66 skills from which 550 undergraduate students of the University of Abuja were tasked to rank. The first twenty most acceptable skills ranked by students was recommended for Universities in Nigeria as the basis upon which they could select entrepreneurship curriculum contents for their students.
