This research conducted to determine students’ involvement in co-curricular activities at<br />

Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) using the Structured Equation Modelling Method<br />

(SEM). A total of 176 students taking the co-curriculum recreation course were selected<br />

to be used the sample. The information obtained through a quantitative method which is<br />

a set of questionnaire forms to determine the involvement of students in co-curriculum<br />

activities. This research was carried out using the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM)<br />

approach and involving two software, Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS)<br />

and Analysis of Moment Structure (AMOS). The results showed that the implementation<br />

of co-curriculum activities, student’s personality, student’s attitude in group work and<br />

student’s leadership are significant to the student involvement in university activities while<br />

the facilities that being used by the students are not significant at all. Therefore, it is<br />

hope that this study will enhance student awareness to engage in co-curriculum in order<br />

to enhance student’s personality, teamwork and leadership.<br />
