Abstract:

 The purpose of this empirical review was to cover broad area of quantitative research work done with statistical findings about awareness, attitude and sexual activities on HIV/AIDS among college and university students. Almost all the studies reviewed utilized survey method in the design of the studies with large population samples. The target populations were college and university students in various countries, such as, United States of America, Nigeria, Ghana, India, Ethiopia, Western Napel, and Hyderabab. There was no gender disparity in selection of research subjects. Most of the studies reviewed indicated that respondents in the studies reported having fair knowledge about HIV/AIDS, and sources of information on HIV/AIDS. Respondents also reported having fair knowledge on preventive measures against HIV infections through sexual activities and other means of spread. Some of the studies reviewed indicated that HIV risk awareness and prevention efforts at Historically Black College and University Student (HBCUS) have challenges, and need to be strengthened.
