The objective of the study is to measure the university student; acceptance of the Content based instruction (CBI) approach for The Integrity and Anti-Corruption (IAC) and their understanding on corruption and integrity issues in Malaysia as a whole. This is important as the battle against corruption must be carried out via all means. Thus the CBI approach enables lecturers to emphasize IAC within their existing languages and humanities courses. Data was elicited via survey questionnaires and selective interviews on 90 students who enrolled in the various courses for February semester. The findings show that majority of the respondents were very receptive to the integration of IAC topics via CBI in the languages and humanities courses and they have good understanding on the main aspects of integrity and corruption. However some of the students perception on a few micro practices relating to corruption shows somewhat worrying results. Suggestions are put forth to improve the content integration in the courses so that the learning outcomes will be better achieved as the understanding of IAC reach a better level.
