Abstract
This study investigates the correlations among academic performance, career choices, and undergraduate engagement at the Faculty of Education, University of Ibadan, Nigeria. A descriptive survey design was used in the study. About 287 second-year undergraduates were selected at random. The data were analysed statistically using a two-way ANOVA and a Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient at a significance level of 0.05. The findings showed a statistically significant (r = 0.57) moderately positive correlation between students' academic engagement and their choice of profession. However, there was a weak positive correlation (r = 0.11) between academic achievement and career choice and a non-significant, weak negative correlation (r = -0.04) between academic engagement and academic achievement. Career choice and level of engagement enhance students' academic performance. Prospective students and other educational stakeholders should carefully consider these factors to achieve a successful university education.
