Abstract: This study aims to understand the moderating role of demographic and behavioural variables on student engagement among MBA graduates. The Utrecht Work Engagement Scale for Students (UWES-S) was used to assess student engagement. Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis test were applied to find out the moderating role of the demographic and behavioural factors. It was found that gender, medium of instruction at the school level, frequency of late arrival, and interaction level in class discussions had an impact on student engagement. In contrast, variables such as family monthly income and the type of parents’ occupation did not affect student engagement.
