ABSTRACT
The study examined the relationship between the socioeconomic status of athletes and the pursuit of One hundred and fifteen athletes were randomly selected from various engineering schools affiliated with Punjab Technical University.
The main objective of the study was to examine the relationship between the socioeconomic level and achievement motivational techniques of engineering athletes: Bhargava's inventory was used to assess achievement motivation and the socio-economic status scale of Rajbir Singh.
Radhey Shyam, and Satish Kumar was used to measure their socioeconomic status.
Conclusion: According to the chi-square analysis and correlation coefficient study by Karl Pearson, there is no significant difference between the achievementmotivation relationship and the socio-economic status of cricket, football, and hockey athletes of engineering colleges affiliated with the Punjab University of Technology, but the difference is different.

A person who is committed to a task because of achievement motivation is said to work in the spirit of achievement motivation.
Achievement motivation is very important for anyone to improve their performance in college.
Therefore, achievement motivation is the tendency to approach success or the ability to take pride in an achievement.
When a person has higher achievement motivation, they have higher aspirations, which leads to higher achievement.

This happens when a person is aware that their performance is evaluated, that their actions result in either success or failure, and that good performance creates pride in their achievements.
Financial variables will influence wellness awareness, and an individual's achievement of wellness awareness may be credited to numerous benefits anticipated by both the person and society.
Social inspirations may extend from expanded efficiency, military preparation, national security, and resistance of as of late achieved autonomy and opportunity from remote specialists.
Individuals may be spurred by wanting a sense of well-being, a cure to strain, vitality, and imperativeness.
The lesson alliance may coordinate physical wellness toward the improvement of a positive self-image, self-confidence, and a craving for bliss (Damayanti et al.

METHODS
A total of 115 Sports persons were chosen at random from various engineering colleges of Punjab Technical University.
The achievement Motivation Questionnaire developed by Bhargava and Singh.
Radhey Shyam, and Satish KumarAos socio-economic status scale Questionnaire was administered to engineering Sports persons to get the data.
A detailed study of achievement motivation and socioeconomic status was done.
the Chi-square was implemented as well, and Karl PearsonAos correlation coefficient was applied.
