UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT PERFORMANCE

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine factors influencing undergraduate student performance. Two research questions are what student performance is, and what factors influence student performance in public universities in Hanoi. The research model was tested on survey data using Smart PLS software version 4.0.8.9. Five verified factors influencing student performance include student self-motivation, student self-efficacy, engagement in a university environment, student satisfaction with the university, and luck. In addition, one controlled variable that negatively affects student performance is club membership. Based on the findings several managerial implications were proposed. This research contributes information on student performance to the literature.
