الملخص:University students are future leaders of our country. However, most undergraduate students are not eligible to vote in_general elections except those in the final year who have reached the minimum age of 21 years old. This study is about the factors that influence IIUM students in their voting choices. The aim of this study is to determine the students' perception on voting and election and to consider what would interest the students to vote. This study benefits from data collected in a research project entitled "A survey of nation-building: Attitudes and expectations of university students in Malaysia" carried out by the Electoral Studies Research Unit, International Islamic University Malaysia in 2011. The findings suggest that all the factors studied in this · research have a positive influence on students' interests to vote and these factors are important in their perception on voting.
