This study aimed to examine the impact of communication skills training and stress management on the academic motivation of students at Farhangian University. In this quasi-experimental study, 60 students were selected using purposive sampling and assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group received 10 sessions of training, comprising two sessions per week on communication skills and eight sessions on stress management. Data were collected using the standardized Academic Motivation Scale (AMS). Data analysis, conducted through multivariate covariance analysis (MANCOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc tests, revealed that communication skills and stress management training significantly increased the academic motivation of students in the experimental group compared to the control group. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that training in communication skills and stress management can be an effective strategy for enhancing academic motivation among students.
