 Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to explore the students' attitudes towards the use of the internet among students in the College of Business Administration at Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University for the academic year 2019-2020. Using data from a self-administered survey that was adopted and adapted from previous studies, the results of this study indicate that the respondents have a positive attitude toward using the internet, which is reflected in the high percentages of using the internet. The results of this study should be useful to policymakers at the university level and the classroom level as there is a positive attitude in disseminating knowledge in the higher educational setting.
