520 |a The Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) has put a major strain on local universities to enforce the practice of student-centred teaching as part of requirements of a government accredited educational institution (MQA Act, 2007). The studentcentred approach is geared to mould students into independent individuals that are able to think critically and shape their own worldview. In accordance with government requirements, this study set out to investigate whether the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) was meeting MQA requirements in implementing student-centred learning, and to identify whether subject discipline, nationality, gender and administrative positions of lecturers determine the implementation of the approach. The sample of this study (N=100) comprised of IIUM lecturers from all faculties in the Gombak and Kuantan campus. Data collection was done via an online questionnaire which was designed based on criteria of the student-centred teaching approach. Results show that lecturers of IIUM are both opinionated towards studentcentred teaching as well implementing it in teaching practices in the classroom. Subject discipline, nationality, gender of lecturers and seniority of administrative positions however, do not play a role in the level of implementation of the studentcentred approach and are not predicative of its teaching practices. Based on these findings, this study proffers a better understanding for lecturers on the implementations of student-centred teaching, and to re-assure the MQA on the quality assurance of local universities.
