Entrepreneurship education is so important in shaping and imparting entrepreneurial attitudes among graduates of the higher learning institutions. With this fact several higher learning institutions have decided to either establish entrepreneurship educational programmes or mainstreaming entrepreneurship modules into their curricular. Despite all these efforts few graduates engage on entrepreneurship activities. Therefore the study focused on assessing the effect of entrepreneurship on entrepreneurial behavior. Data were collected by using questionnaire from 233 Institute of Social Work graduates while descriptive statistics i.e., percentages and Mann Whitney U test were used in data analysis. The results indicate the positive effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial behavior. Additionally, the study recommends that every student must study entrepreneurship and it should be linked to students’ academic specializations.
