Popis: Unity in a society is the backbone of a nation's productivity and harmony. Therefore, in order to keep the country in a peaceful state, unity among races must be nurtured and maintained. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the strategy for enhancing the level of integration among (IPT) students. The methods of this study are quantitative research and the research question is to assess strategy for enhancing the level of integration among (IPT) students. This study was conducted through the dissemination of questionnaires and the sample consisted of local (IPT) students. A total of 1000 manuscripts were distributed and from that 478 manuscripts were returned and analyzed. This research found that most (IPT) students are on a medium level of understanding of the unity concept. In addition, this study found that these students lack the will to assimilate among them in totality which is the chief objective of the unity concept. Therefore, it is recommended that the cultivation of the spirit of unity must begin from as early as the family unit and also at the pre-school level. In addition, emphasis should also be given to the usage of the Malay language as the official language of unity and learning in the universities. It is also recommended that reforms must be made and that elements of national unity must be embedded in all university programs so that it will inculcate openness and acceptance among all citizens towards true national unity. This research was funded under the Ministry of Higher Education Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS).
