Abstract
This study investigates the relationship of the academic performance and the courses achievement of undergraduate students at the faculty of science and technology. Linear Regression Analysis and Pearson product Moment Correlation Coefficient are used to determine which courses are significant predictors. The correlation is being categorized from 12 curricula course structure. Data collected is from the sample of 1619 online report submitted by science graduated students who have graduated during the academic year 2013-2017. The results of the study indicate that there is a positive significant linear correlation between the course structure achievement and the academic performance in each curriculum. 100 % of the curricula, require major course achievement have a significant effect on the grade point average. 92% of the curricula, elective major course and professional English courses achievement have a significant effect on the grade point average. Required major course and elective major course are quite strong relationship with academic success.
