摘要
Communication skills is one of the elements of generic skills that are essential among university students. Through their years in the university, students would have been exposed to situations, in and outside of the lecture halls, where they have to use their communication skills, for example group assignments and class presentations. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to investigate the level of communication skills among university students. Communication skills were measured via a self-administered questionnaire and it assessed ten elements in communication skills, including oral, written and social behavior. The reliability of the questionnaire was good, with r > 0.08 in each sub construct. The results of this study found that university students have achieved good communication skills.
