The quality of graduates is one of the key indicators of a university’s success in delivering education. Efforts to improve graduate quality cannot be separated from the role of effective leadership and well-implemented governance. Transformational leadership and Islamic economic-based governance are considered important approaches that can enhance higher education management and produce competent graduates. This study aims to examine the implementation of transformational leadership at Kepanjen University Malang, analyze the application of Islamic economic-based governance in improving graduate quality, and explore the outcomes of transformational leadership implementation through strengthening Islamic economic-based governance at the university.This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The informants consisted of university leaders, lecturers, administrative staff, and students. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source and method triangulation. The findings show that transformational leadership at Kepanjen University Malang is implemented through the development of vision, motivation, and competency improvement of the academic community. Islamic economic-based governance is applied by integrating values such as trustworthiness (amanah), honesty, justice, transparency, and responsibility in institutional management and learning processes. The combination of these approaches contributes positively to improving graduates’ academic competence and Islamic character.
