AbstractThe aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between curriculum contents reform and graduate entrepreneurship training in Nigerian Universities in the southwestern geo-political zone of the country.A questionnaire was administered to five hundred and forty four studentsfrom six universities in Southwest Nigeria.The results showed that the current curriculum is deficient in producing the much needed graduates with soundentrepreneurial skills, who could be self-employed after leaving the universities. It was further discovered thatcurriculum has adirect relationship with the level of skills and knowledge students acquired to establish their ownenterprise. The study therefore concludes that curriculum contents need to be reformed, be flexible and practicallyoriented. More importantly, the involvement of successful entrepreneurs and other relevant stakeholders withadequate experience within and outside the universities should be engaged. Similarly, the new curriculum shouldencourage entrepreneurship training throughout the duration of students’ university programme. |
