Home economics is a significant subject in Nigerias educational ecosystem that aims to facilitate the empowerment of students to have a positive relationship with food skills and a healthy diet. There are growing indications that the field has been experiencing low enrolment in the recent decade. Thus, the present study examined the teachers pedagogical proficiency as a factor influencing the students attitude towards home economics education. Ninety-six undergraduates enrolled in the home economics department from two higher education institutions in the Enugu State of Nigeria participated in the study. A simple percentage score indicates that the majority of the students (65.5%) indicated a positive attitude towards home economics education, while less (34.5%) showed negative attitudes. Furthermore, a simple regression analysis was performed to test the study hypothesis. The result revealed that teachers pedagogical proficiency positively predicted students attitudes towards home economics education.
