ABSTRACT: This study has examined the extent to which effective time management could result in improved quality of learning among employed university students. Based on quantitative research design, convenient sampling approach is followed. The questionnaire, consisting of a Time Management Behvaior Scale (TMBS) was used to gather data from employed university students. 315 responses were received, and analysed through SPSS (21.0 versions). Findings have yielded that effective time management could result in improved quality of learning among employed university students (r = 0.114) (p ≤ 0.98). However, this relationship has been found to be statistically insignificant. Results of the study will help students to understand the relationship between time management and improved quality of learning in academics. Being informed of this association, university students should manage their use and learn to improve performance of students in academics, while getting insights into professional life as well. Recommendations to use longitudinal studies, conducted on samples of different cities and even regions of Pakistan in the future.
