Abstract: Postgraduate education is pivotal in shaping future professionals, yet student satisfaction remains a key concern for institutions. Despite growing recognition of the importance of a supportive learning environment, gaps in understanding the postgraduate experience persist. This study aims to explore postgraduate students’ taught experience in UiTM Negeri Sembilan, focusing on teaching and learning, student engagement, and institutional support. A survey was conducted with 64 students using a 41-item questionnaire, analysed through descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that students reported high satisfaction levels across various dimensions, including teaching quality, engagement opportunities, and resource availability. Effective organisation and management of programmes further contribute to a positive learning environment. These insights highlight the need for continuous alignment between curriculum and industry demands to maintain relevance. The study recommends enhancing student engagement through interactive learning opportunities and improving resource allocation to meet evolving postgraduate needs. Future research could focus on cross-institutional comparisons to develop best practices for postgraduate education.
