The purpose of conducting this study is to identify whether a relationship exists between student engagement and academic achievement. The findings of the study will be of significance to the universities as well as the current undergraduates, since it provides an understanding on which measurements of student engagement is to be focused on, in order to achieve superior academic accomplishments. Additionally, the study will be of importance to Sri Lanka as a whole, for despite this subject being investigated in numerous other nations, it was identified that significant consideration was not given to the Sri Lankan context, when investigating the relationship between students’ engagement and their scholarly accomplishments. However, there can be unpublished researches in existence. The research was conducted using numerous scientific research tools. A deductive research approach was utilized in the current study.
