The use of online tools such as Padlet and Kahoot helped in generating interactive sessions and communication between lecturers and students. Some students adapted well to online classes, and some found it less interesting and difficult to follow. Engineering courses require strong understanding of concepts and mathematical calculations. Since the transition to the endemic phases, universities have gradually begun shifting back from online to face-to-face classes.

Therefore, the aim of this research is to understand students' perception and comparison on the effectiveness of online and face-to-face classes for engineering courses. A survey was conducted among engineering courses from five universities in Malaysia. A total of 255 engineering students participated in the survey. To analyse the data, the methodology used in this paper consists of correlation analysis, the mean correlation coefficient (MCC), multiple regression model and ANOVA. The results show that there are five key factor contributes to the effectiveness and quality in engineering education.
