The number of respondents in this research are 400 respondents that focused on bachelor students in the East Coast of the Peninsular Malaysia, specifically in the states of Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang. The finding of this research revealed a significant positive relationship between attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioural control with bachelor students' awareness of data analytics courses. Together, these factors form a comprehensive understanding of the pivotal elements influencing bachelor students' awareness in this domain. In the future, the scope of this study can be further expanded by focusing on diploma level students as a target. The study area can also be further expanded by studying students from different areas such as the West Coast or the South Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. In addition, studies can also focus students in a specific field such as business students. |
