The main focus of this study is identifying the influencing factors that are significantly associated with the academic performance of universities students. Data were extracted from the various departments of two public universities. Data analysis by Contingency and logistic regression were used to identify the determinants of academic performance of the students. Among the students, 56.8% were male and 43.2% were female most of them are Muslims and unmarried. 75.1% of students came from rural areas, only 15% of students’mothers were higher educated and 65% of student's family status was middle class. Higher educated mother, HSC and SSC results, admitted to an expected university, admitted present department by their own choice, study environment in the department and use of the internet had significant effects on the results of 1st year of the students. The findings concluded that increase and improve students’academic performance are some crucial steps regarding securing admission first choice of the department and advising about peer influence should be taken into consideration.  \nKeywords: determinants, academic performance, public university, logistic regression analysis, Bangladesh  \nIntroduction  \nEducation is one of the most essential factors in producing a human resource that is compulsory for any development according to the needs of a country. The role of education plays and contributes to the intellectual growth and development of a society which becomes a common concern in both developed and developing countries (Hosseini, 2014). Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Its population increased day by day and also developed its educational institution and all development sectors. It has achieved 8.2 percent economic growth in 2019 and has become a faster-growing economy of the world (IMF, 2019) . But, this economic growth will not continue for a long time without substantial development of its human capital because “investment in human capital development plays a positive role in economic growth and that human capital is the driver of economic growth and development” (Psacharopoulos & Woodhall, 1997). This economic growth and development depend on its education systems. Thus, the development of human capital through quality of higher  \n*  \nAssociate Professor, Department of Population Science and Human Resource Development, University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh.  \n±Professor, Department of Population Science and Human Resource Development, University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh.  \neducation and training must be needed for Bangladeshi people, if it wants to ensure sustainable development and growth of its economy (SDGs, 2030; Sarkar & Hossain, 2019). The quality of the education system may reflect the development efforts that must be made in the social, economic, and political spheres. Furthermore, in this era of globalization and technological revolution, education is considered the first step for every human activity (Battle & Lewis, 2002). Higher education in Bangladesh has grown at an exponential rate during the last two decades.  \nStudents are an essential asset for every educational institution. The social and economic development of a country is directly related to the academic performance of students. These factors have a major impact on learning performance, but these factors vary from person to person and from country to country (Hanushek, 1997). Indeed, academic performance can be influenced by several factors that influence the quality of academic performance, both inside and outside the school. These factors may be termed as student factors, family factors, school fac","cbCaiunW0n0mbMMk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiunW0n0mbMMk","pdf",181354,13,"English","# Introduction\n# Public Universities Scenario in Bangladesh","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study identifies the influencing factors significantly associated with students’ academic performance in Bangladesh’s public universities.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the academic performance measured and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"Students’ grade point average (GPA) was used as an indicator, and data were analyzed using contingency analysis and logistic regression.\"},{\"question\":\"Which factors showed significant effects on students’ academic results?\",\"answer\":\"Higher educated mothers, HSC and SSC results, admission to an expected university, choosing the present department by their own choice, study environment in the department, and use of the internet had significant effects on 1st year results.\"}]","Determinants of Academic Performance of the Students of Public Universities in Bangladesh | PDF",1792076636,33]
