| dc.description.abstract | The support from higher institutions to facilitate entrepreneurship development courses is at an alarming rate at all levels. Despite this support, the rate of unemployment among university graduates continues to increase daily. The study examined how entrepreneurial curricula in selected universities in Kwara State influence students' mindset on entrepreneurship. The study adopted a thematic analysis based on data collected from the in-depth interviews obtained from nine students across the selected universities in Kwara State. They concluded that students were engaged in industrial attachments, vocational skills, workshops, and group projects that greatly influenced students' mindsets toward entrepreneurial behaviours through skills acquisition and team building. The findings also revealed that the study has implications on strategy development for entrepreneurship development curricula of universities in Kwara State and students' goals. Therefore, it is recommended that the students' entrepreneurial mindset should be enhanced through career team building; the schools should encourage undergraduates to attend workshops, acquire vocational skills and also encourage the students on holiday jobs. | |
