The ability of individuals to excel in one's careers is termed as career adaptability. People with a high level of career adaptability score tend to showcase better overall control over their careers. In this study, we have explored the precedents that predict career adaptability. We collected data from 330 students of graduation, post-graduation, and research enrolled at various universities in India. Using structural equation modelling in R Programming, we found that social support and course relevance plays a positive and significant role in 'university life satisfaction' which in turn predicts a positive impact on career adaptability and its four components (concern, control, curiosity, and confidence). Further we found negative moderation effect of 'career decision' on relationship between 'course relevance' and 'university life satisfaction'. This empirical evidence in the study provides insights to the academic policymakers and various stakeholders and help in creating a robust and effective policy framework.
