Abstract
The research aimed to discover the relationship of the academic climate with the emotions of achievement among students of the Islamic University of Medina, and to reveal the differences in the mean scores of emotions of achievement and the average degrees of academic climate between male and female students. This study includes (200) male and female students from the Islamic University of Madinah, and their ages range between (18-21) years, with an average age of 19.7 and a deviation of 2.043. The research used the criteria (academic climate - emotions of achievement) prepared by the researcher. The most important results showed that there is a negative correlation between the dimensions of the academic climate with the emotions of achievement (boredom, anger - shame and anxiety - despair) and the overall degree, and a positive correlation with the dimension (pride and enjoyment) at the preparatory year, and all correlation coefficients are indicative at the level of (0.01). Also, it revealed statistically significant differences in the mean scores of males and females in the academic climate and the achievement emotions where the value of "F" was statistically significant at the level of 0.01 in favor of males in the best direction. Moreover, the results showed no statistically significant differences in the averages of the degrees of awareness of the students of the College of Education for the academic climate according to the specialty (kindergarten - special education - art education) from the preparatory year students at Al Islamic University in Madinah.
