Learning environment's conditions and combinations of various motivation factors could have serious impact upon students' learning behaviours and attitudes. Considerable effort has been expended in attempting to improve teachers' teaching skills, students' learning techniques and teacher-student interaction, as greater understanding of the key attributes of effective teaching and learning could re-vitalise the existing education system. In view of this, a survey was conducted to identify factors which influence the effectiveness of a learning process. This article focuses on the analysis of some Hygiene factors and Motivation factors which are considered important to engineering students, and which can have a positive impact on their learning. Understanding the influence of such factors can give educational institutions insights into aspects of their students' behaviour and help them to improve the learning environment.
