Three sampling regions, Upper, Central, and Southern Punjab of Punjab province were selected to carry out the study. Two public sector universities from each geographic region were selected. In the next stage, four disciplines of above mention universities were selected. A multi-stage random sampling technique was employed to collect data. Data were analyzed by applying SPSS's latest version, structural equation modeling, and regression analysis to analyze the data. The study's findings contribute to understanding the multifaceted nature of QA in university teaching. The proposed model exhibits strong explanatory power, predictive relevance, and goodness of fit. This research underscores the importance of various factors in enhancing quality assurance and informing educational practices and policies.
