ABSTRACTPrevious studies show that higher education expansion is in tandem with national economic growth. However in the case of Malaysia's economy, graduate unemployment shows an increasing trend especially among those with first degree qualification but relatively lower among those with diplomas. This possibly reflects that the labour market requires relatively more diploma holders compared with the first degree graduates. This however is in contrast with current expansion of higher education in Malaysia which tends to produce more first degree graduates. To avoid wasteful investment of resources, it therefore crucial to determine which education programmes contribute to economic growth. Thus, this article aims at analysing higher education requirement in Malaysia using economic growth and higher education data for 1972-2004period.With regards to higher education expansion in Malaysia, our OLS regression results show that only enrolment in diploma programmes has signifcant relationship with the national economic growth.Keywords: economics education; economic growth; unemployment; regression analysis; higher educationABSTRAKKajian lepas menunjukkan sistem pendidikan tinggi berkembang seiring dengan pertumbuhan ekonomi sesebuah negara. Namun begitu, dalam kes ekonorni Malaysia pengangguran siswazah menunjukkan trendyangsemakin meningkat terutama dari kalangan mereka yang memiliki ijazah pertama, tetapi kurang dari kalangan pemegang diploma. Keadaan ini seolah-olah menggambarkan bahawa pasaran kerja tempatan lebihmemerlukan pendidikan tinggi peringkat diploma berbanding ijazah pertama, sedangkan perkembangan sistem pendidikan tinggi negara ini lebih cenderung menghasilkan graduan peringkut ijazah pertama. Bagi mengelak pembaziran sumber adalah penting untuk menentukan program pendidikan yang benar-benar menyumbang kepada pertumbuhan ekonomi negara. Artikel ini bertujuan membuat analisis keperluan pendidikan tinggi di Malaysia berdasarkan datapertumbuhan ekonomi dan pendidikan tinggi dari tahun 1975 hingga 2004. Dalam konteks perkembangan pendidikan tinggi di Malaysia, hasil analisis menggunakan kaedah OLS menztnjukkan bahawa hanya enrolmen peringkat diploma mempunyai hubungan yang signi$kandengan pertumbuhan ekonomi negara.Katakunci: ekonomi pendidikan; pertumbuhan ekonomi; pengangguran; analisis regresi; pendidikan tinggi
