Abstract: This systematic literature review investigates the role of entrepreneurship curriculum in empowering rural students for socio-economic development in South Africa. Entrepreneurship education has gained prominence as a means to address unemployment and poverty, particularly in rural areas. However, there is a gap in understanding how entrepreneurship curriculum can effectively empower rural students. Through a systematic review of literature published between 2010 and 2024, this study examines the existing research to elucidate the impact of entrepreneurship curriculum on rural student empowerment and socio-economic development in South Africa. The findings contribute to the body of knowledge by identifying key themes, challenges, and best practices in entrepreneurship education for rural students.
