Abstract

The study analyzed entrepreneurship skills acquisition content of GST curriculum for undergraduates in Nigerian Universities. Four research questions guided the study. The population of the study was all the three hundred level students of 2011/2012 academic session who were exposed to the entrepreneurial skill GST curriculum. A sample of 400 students was used for the study. A 52- itemed questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents. The instrument was validated by two experts from GST unit, and one from Measurement and Evaluation, all from Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki. The instrument yielded a reliability coefficient of 0.72 using Cronbach Alpha method. The results from the responses were analyzed using mean scores and percentages. The study findings showed that the students could not properly identify the content of general entrepreneurship curriculum, and were not exposed to the practical aspect of the skills; hence the low percentage recorded for those who are ready to practice the skills. They equally agreed that they would face the enlisted challenges in the practice of the skills. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were made. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2013.v4n7p137
