Abstract
Home economics is an essential part of learning in the colleges of education in the Nigerian higher education landscape. It offers the learners the opportunity to acquire basic home training required in contemporary societies. However, little is known about the cooking potentials of students enrolled in home economics. The present study assessed the cooking skills of home economics students in colleges of education in southeast Nigeria. Ninety-seven students were recruited from home economics departments in colleges of education in the southeast. The respondents completed a self-report measure of cooking skills. The percentage analysis showed that most students (61.11%) enrolled in home economics possess high cooking skills. The findings from the study have implications for increased enrollment in home economics and effective implementation of policies geared towards the development of home economics in the colleges of education in southeast Nigeria.
