A survey research design was employed to collect data from the sampled respondents. The respondents were purposively selected from the staff members of each of the big four audit firms and students of established higher institutions of learning. Findings from the study show that academic curriculum significantly explains about .329 variability in the employability of accounting graduate in Nigeria (β= .329, P = .002 < .05). The study thus concludes that academic curriculum significantly affects the employability of accounting graduates in Nigeria.
