Abstract Background: Although significant research has explored cardiovascular disease (CVD) epidemiology and risk factors across populations, there's been a notable oversight in assessing awareness levels among undergraduate students in Malaysia. Awareness significantly influences health behaviours and preventive measures. Recognizing knowledge gaps and misconceptions regarding CVD risk factors among young adults is crucial for crafting impactful health promotion strategies aimed at alleviating the long-term burden of CVD. Aim: The study was conducted to assess the prevalence of awareness of risk factors for cardiovascular disease among students of various faculties in the University of Cyberjaya. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted by distributing questionnaires online and physically to 424 students from various faculties. Data analysis was done with Jeffrey's Amazing Statistics Program with Pearson’s correlation. Result: The study shows that students from the faculty of medicine had the highest awareness of cardiovascular disease risk factors while students from faculty of allied health sciences had moderate awareness and those from other non-healthcare related faculties had lower awareness. Conclusion: This research reveals significant differences in cardiovascular disease risk awareness among undergraduate students at the University of Cyberjaya.
