Industry 4.0 requires its staff to be critical in data analysis and capable of working flexibly across a variety of company situations. Moreover, the World Economic Forum survey on future job highlighted the importance of critical thinking and problem-solving skills for future employment. However, currently, most of the employers stressed on the graduates' lack of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Due to the fact that educational institution is a place to develop and enhance students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills, therefore this study explores the level of Kolej Universiti Poly-Tech MARA Kuala Lumpur (KUPTM Kuala Lumpur) students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. This study also explores the students’ awareness of Industry 4.0 in order to understand their perspective of the future workplace. A sample of 170 students from KUPTM Kuala Lumpur completed the survey. The findings from this research help us to identify the level of our students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills and their awareness about current industrial challenges. The findings also can be used for courses continuous improvement which to develop students with a higher capacity for reasoning and logical thinking. Students with a higher capacity to think critically will not only be appreciated as a workplace asset but will also have a bright future prospect. 2020-03-02T10:50:52Z 2020-03-02T10:50:52Z 2019 Article Journal of Human Development and Communication (JoHDEC), vol.8, 2019, pages 13-22 2289-2702 (printed) 2232-1535 (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/64448 https://johdec.unimap.edu.my/ en Center for Communication Technology and Human Development (UniMAP)
