Abstract: This study examines the role of project-based learning (PBL) in vocational curriculum in Nigeria, exploring its effectiveness in enhancing practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and collaborative learning among vocational students. PBL emphasizes hands-on, real-world projects that simulate workplace scenarios, preparing students for industry demands and fostering experiential learning. The research aims to (1) assess the integration and implementation of PBL in vocational education curricula, (2) evaluate the impact of PBL on student engagement, skill acquisition, and career readiness, and (3) propose strategies for optimizing PBL to enhance vocational curriculum quality and student learning outcomes. A survey research design is justified to gather insights from educators, industry practitioners, and vocational students. A sample size of 300 participants will be selected through purposive sampling to represent vocational institutions, PBL advocates, and industry partners in Cross River State. Case studies will explore successful PBL implementations and their outcomes in vocational education settings. Findings indicated positive student perceptions towards PBL's practical learning benefits, identified challenges in curriculum alignment and resource availability, and highlighted PBL's role in fostering critical thinking and teamwork skills. Recommendations include curriculum alignment with industry needs, professional development for educators in PBL methodologies, and fostering partnerships with industry stakeholders to enhance PBL integration and effectiveness in vocational education.
