Dr. Olufemi Aladejebi

Abstract
The objective of this study is to show the effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intentions of students among four tertiary institutions in Nigeria: a University, Polytechnic, College of education and a satellite campus of a University. Data was gathered from 381 students from the four institutions. SPSS was used to analyze the data gathered. Findings from the study reveal that the behavioral component of the students' attitude toward entrepreneurship education was positive. Many of the students enjoyed entrepreneurship education. Practical examples of entrepreneurship should be included more in classroom teaching. Many of the students show the intention of starting their own business when they graduate.
