Abstract
This research aims to explore the point of view of Malaysians by determining the
satisfaction of accounting students towards the supervision of research in the postgraduate program of Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM). A total of 190 questionnaires were distributed to postgraduate students from the accounting faculty in Selangor branch. Statistical tests such as descriptive analysis, correlation, and regression analysis were conducted. Findings indicate that feedback perception has a significant effect on student satisfaction. However, this study shows an insignificant relationship between supervisor-student relationship with student satisfaction. This research thus contributes to postgraduate students and research supervisory directly. It also gives possible benefits to standard setters, regulators, policymakers, and other higher education institutions.
