This study explored the impact of stakeholder engagement on curriculum implementation at Ethiopian Defense University (EDU). It focuses on examining the effects of partnerships, stakeholder motivation, and decisionmaking on curriculum implementation. As a result, a descriptive survey research design with a mixed research approach was employed. A total of 166 respondents (109 students, 51 instructors, and six college commandants) were the participants of the study. Commandants were selected by purposive sampling, and instructors and students were selected randomly. Questionnaires and interviews were tools or sources of data. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (one-way ANOVA and independent samples t-test), whereas the qualitative data were analyzed through verbal description. Findings revealed that instructors value stakeholders' support and commitment, while students appreciate the positive impact on their learning experience. The finding revealed that there is a strong positive correlation between stakeholder engagement and curriculum implementation effectiveness, emphasizing the importance of continuous interaction, feedback collection, and stakeholder knowledge for curriculum alignment. It also emphasizes the need for stakeholder engagement in decision-making processes and partnerships to improve curriculum implementation outcomes. The findings of the study may inspire further research and dialogue on stakeholder engagement in curriculum implementation, encouraging international audiences to explore innovative approaches and best practices that promote meaningful educational experiences for students in the field of pedagogy. The researcher suggested that EDU should prioritize stakeholder motivation, partnerships, and decision-making for effective curriculum implementation. This promotes ownership, engagement, and shared responsibility. Additionally, EDU should prioritize stakeholder engagement, support, understanding, commitment, and feedback to ensure the quality and effectiveness of curriculum implementation.
