This study is to find the students’ awareness on e‐commerce, and the focus is on students pursuing Bachelor of Accountancy in Klang Valley universities. Questionnaires were distributed and only 551 out of 1000 responded. The data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 11.5. The statistical analyses that were used are descriptive statistics, frequencies, one tail t‐test, chi‐square, one‐way ANOVA, and Pearson Chi‐Square test. Findings show that almost all the students have heard about e‐commerce and know what it is. However, those who know about e‐commerce only have general knowledge about it. Most students who have heard of e‐commerce, are actually able to apply it and some of those who said they do not know e‐commerce had in fact got engaged in e‐commerce without realizing it. It was also found that the students’ computer skills also contribute to their awareness and understanding, as well as the application of e‐commerce. Significant correlation was found between the students’ computer skills with their awareness, understanding and the application of e‐commerce.
