University graduates today are facing uncertainty in employment due to economic recession, the COVID-[19 ]pandemic, and job replacement by artificial intelligence. Building an entrepreneurial mindset can help students to overcome unemployment and have a successful careers. Therefore, universities are increasingly focusing on fostering the entrepreneurial mindset of their students. Certain elements of entrepreneurial mindset must be identified at the curriculum and career design level to meet the requirements of stakeholders and prepare students for their careers after graduation. According to the principles of outcome-based education, a study program must establish its expected learning outcomes which the students must be encouraged to achieve. However, the extent to which the elements of an entrepreneurial mindset are necessary to support learning outcomes and career success can be different among students from different fields of study. This study identifies the elements of students’ entrepreneurial mindset that are necessary for the Bachelor of Business Administration Program (B.B.A. Program), Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Prince of Songkla University (Pattani Campus) located in Southernmost Thailand. The past studies of entrepreneurial mindset have been revealed, and then the elements of entrepreneurial mindset related to the expected learning outcomes of the B.B.A. Program were selected. The elements of an entrepreneurial mindset presented in this article could be utilized for curriculum and course design, not only for the B.B.A. Program but also for others with similar expected learning outcomes.
 Keywords: course design, curriculum design, entrepreneurial mindset, entrepreneurship 1.

Water samples were collected especially into sterile containers (4 – litres) at four designated pints (Faculty of Science, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences; Amala Joint and Staff School) within the Lagos State University, Ojo Campus. The water samples were immediately subjected to both chemical and microbiological analysis in order to evaluate the quality status of potable water in circulation within the university and identify its sources of contamination. Levels of iron, calcium and magnesium detectable in the circulating drinking water were far below the WHO recommended limits. However, more potentially dangerous discovery was the level of Coliform contamination which far exceeds the WHO standards. This explains the high incidence of water-borne diseases such as Dysentry, Diarrhea and Typhoid fever within the university population. Meanwhile, other micro-organisms detected were E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, yeasts and moulds. The pH of potable water in circulation falls within recommended limits (6.0-8.0) but fro faculty of arts and social sciences that had pH of 5.5 which suggested a high degree of public health concern. There is the need for adequate changes to be made at points where water distribution systems integrity appeared compromised. The university community is advised to boil water before drinking in order to avoid consumption of unwholesome biological agents in the water distribution networks.

This paper aims to explore the virtual learning practices in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Mid-West University during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study employs a cross-sectional research design under the broader category of descriptive research, relying on the questionnaire as the main tool for data collection. The population comprises the first- and second-semester students of faculty of humanities and social sciences from four campuses of Mid-West University. A purposive sampling technique was utilized to select 159 students, determined using the Raosoft sample size calculator, and SPSS was used for statistical data analysis. The findings reveal that the majority of students (62.3%) received digital training, mainly focused on using Zoom, with high engagement participation rates (94.3%). However, engagement was inconsistent due to reliance on mobile data for internet connectivity (55.8%), and smartphones were the primary device for most students (87.4%). Despite these challenges, students favored live presentations and discussions, showing a preference for interactive, real-time virtual learning experiences. The study highlights the need for improved digital infrastructure. The study recommends that the stakeholders should focus on enhancing accessibility, optimizing platforms for mobile use, and providing more robust internet and device support to ensure equitable and effective virtual learning experiences in the COVID-like situation.

This chapter elaborates on the way that the Maastricht Research-Based Learning (MaRBLe) projects are organised at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, an essentially interdisciplinary faculty that combines social and political sciences with humanities. The projects in this faculty all take real-life problems as a point of departure, which can only be solved in an interdisciplinary way. They all aim at making the students realise that they work for an outside audience. On the one hand, the students follow the full research cycle and aim to produce new (academic) knowledge culminating in a publication. On the other hand, most projects have external partners that are interested in the results and are present at the student presentations. Both elements create a challenging atmosphere which is stimulating and scary at the same time. We found that this challenge will be met successfully only if the project groups are turned into a real academic community. This was accomplished in a variety of ways. Students reflected on each other’s work during a constant process of peer reviewing, reflecting on literature, sharing sources and discussing research designs. Selection potentially played a more controversial role. In a good academic community, members trust each other’s capacities. The project coordinators felt that selecting the top 25% students was essential in facilitating this sense of mutual trust. As the MaRBLe projects are part of the excellence programme set up by the Ministry of Education, this chapter also reflects on the question what excellence is.

This research analyzes the frequency of undergraduate research topics selected as “memoirs” by 4th-year students in the social and political science departments in the Faculty of Arts, Media and Social Sciences (FAMSS) at the National University of Rwanda. Its objective was to ascertain (a) if multiple instances of near-identical topics form identifiable trends, and (b) what convincing explanations might be identified as causal to these topic trends.In total, 1335 memoirs submitted between 1997 and 2011 were analyzed. In this study it was hypothesized that certain research topics are preferred by NUR students in different years, depending on the national popularity of specific social, political and developmental issues, and that these preferences change over time.The researcher used unix-based grep for string analysis of memoir topics, which were then aggregated into frequency histograms and converted the data to N-maps for visualization of the change over time in the respective topics. The research findings indicate that memoir topics follow trends in “popularity” for social research: they rise, remain steady, or fall, depending on exogenous social stimuli, and perhaps for endogenous reasons too.The research concluded that changing preferences for research topics by students can be linked to national or regional events. The causal mechanism evolves from popular discussion in the media, leading to student interest, and eventually to student-selected research topics. The most obvious examples were government policies and programs which attracted significant student attention, causing increased topic frequency, followed by decline as the issue decreased in popularity.The research also identified the tendency for students to copy their research topic from memoirs existing in the Faculty Library. While the issue of plagiarism was not specifically addressed by this study, it is possible that the N-map trends portrayed by this research emerge in part because some students have used past memoirs as templates, possibly including indirect or direct copying. For this reason, the research concluded that while the majority of topic trending observed in the N-grams may be explainable the popularity of national issues, copy-cat research and outright plagiarism could also play a role in these trending phenomena. Further research using full-text soft copies (not available for pre-2009 topics) is suggested.Recommendations include that students should be guided towards unexplored areas of new research and actively discouraged from replicating the research of previous year's memoirs; that the memoir room within the Faculty Library serves little purpose other than to encourage copying and plagiarism and should therefore be closed until a plan for its usefulness can be envisioned; that the teaching of Research Methodology in the social and political sciences is inadequately preparing students for the challenges of actual research (which pushes them to consider plagiarism as a pathway to success) and that NUR should systematize and upgrade its present rudimentary plagiarism detection measures and to publicize this to all students so as to discourage topic replication, copying and outright plagiarism.Keywords: N-gram, plagiarism, research methods, National University of Rwanda, memoir topics
