Motivasi akademik adalah keinginan dalam diri seseorang untuk mencapai tujuan akademiknya. Motivasi akademik berperan penting dalam menentukan keberhasilan mahasiswa karena menjadi sumber dorongan untuk belajar dan mencapai tujuan pendidikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan motivasi akademik mahasiswa laki-laki antara Fakultas Kedokteran dan Fakultas Teknik Universitas Syiah Kuala. Sebanyak 100 mahasiswa laki-laki angkatan 2023 berpartisipasi, terdiri dari 50 mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran dan 50 mahasiswa Fakultas Teknik. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) – Short Indonesian Version, yang mengukur tiga dimensi motivasi: intrinsik, ekstrinsik, dan amotivasi. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan Mann-Whitney U Test karena distribusi data tidak normal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan dalam motivasi intrinsik, ekstrinsik, maupun amotivasi antara mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran dan Fakultas Teknik (p > 0,05). Meskipun demikian, data deskriptif memperlihatkan variasi pola distribusi motivasi pada kedua fakultas. Temuan ini berkontribusi pada literatur motivasi akademik dengan menegaskan bahwa konteks fakultas perlu diperhatikan dalam perancangan program pengembangan motivasi mahasiswa.
Kata Kunci: fakultas kedokteran, fakultas teknik, mahasiswa laki-laki, motivasi akademik, perbedaan
