The objective of this research was to determine the impact of classroom environment, teacher competency, information and communication technology (ICT) resources, and university facilities on academic performance and student engagement at higher education institutions (HEIs). This paper also aimed to contribute to the literature by verifying the mediating effect of student engagement between the selected factors and academic performance. A survey tool was used to gather the data from 314 students in United Arab Emirates. During the phase of data analysis, AMOS Version 21 was utilized to test the proposed hypotheses and validate the research tool. The results supported the notion that teacher competency and ICT resources have positive effects on both academic performance and student engagement. Furthermore, classroom environment and university facilities were found as significant predictors of both academic performance and engagement. Finally, the results showed that student engagement mediates the relationship between the stated factors and academic performance.
