ABSTRACT
The present study was designed to investigate whether the single sex and coeducation environment have any impact on developing self efficacy beliefs and academic achievement of female engineering students. The sample consists of 150 female engineering students studying in single sex and co-education institutes at RTM Nagpur University, Nagpur. Data were collected by administering self efficacy scale developed by Mathur and Bhatnagar (2012). For academic grade the average of percentage among various semesters were calculated. Mean standard deviation and One Way ANOVA was used to analyze the data. Result revealed that students studying in single sex and coeducation institutes differ significantly in academic achievement, but no significant difference was found on self efficacy scores of both the groups.
