ABSTRACT

This study provides understanding of entrepreneurial intention of undergraduates. It reports findings from qualitative data retrieved from self-administered questionnaires to final year students of Usmanu Danfodio University Sokoto that were selected through random sampling. Analytical techniques used include frequency, percentages and logit regression to know the impact of entrepreneurship education on the intention of students to be self-employed. Finally, the study found that exposure of students to entrepreneurship education did not influence their intention to be self-employed due to the fact that entrepreneurship education is a new course and also found other factors such as age, faculty, finance, tribe which had a significant impact on entrepreneurship intention of undergraduates and that despite the knowledge of entrepreneurship education as a contributory factor towards self-employment, undergraduates require additional support to overcome unforeseen challenges.
