The attributes and the performance of these graduates are considered in four broad areas, namely knowledge, skills, abilities and personality.The results of this study will assist the Higher Education Institution in identifying the most important dimensions in the curriculum taught to the students in relation to knowledge, skills, abilities and personality, relevant to the Malaysian market. |
