This study aims to determine the influence of Learning Motivation and Campus Environment on the Academic Achievement of students at the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Timor. This research employs a quantitative approach using simple and multiple linear regression analysis techniques. Primary data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 95 respondents. The results indicate that both learning motivation and campus environment, partially and simultaneously, have a positive and significant effect on student academic achievement. The R-value for learning motivation was 0.397 with an R² of 0.157, while the R-value for campus environment was 0.458 with an R² of 0.210. Simultaneously, the R-value was 0.514 and R² was 0.264, with a calculated F-value of 16.492 and a significance of 0.000. These findings underscore the critical roles of both internal drive and external context in fostering student success.Downloads
