Governments in the developing countries are doing enough to ensure student's engagement in entrepreneurship activities in order to reduce the level of unemployment among graduates. However, among these students lack of entrepreneurial intention is very common. Therefore, this study examined the entrepreneurial intention among Nigerian students in UUM. The study used cross-sectional research design with quantitative questionnaire approach. The study used convenience sampling technique to select 155 participants who provided information on the entrepreneurial orientation, entrepreneurial skill and environmental factor and their connection with entrepreneurial intention among Nigerian students. A regression analysis was used to analysis the data. Overall, the study revealed that both entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial skill have a strong association with entrepreneurial intention among Nigerian students. On the contrary, the finding revealed that the environmental factor is not significantly related with the entrepreneurial intention of Nigerian students. The study concludes that both entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial skill are essential factors required to realize entrepreneurial intention by the Nigerian students in UUM. Limitations and future directions are also discussed in this study.
