Abstract It is necessary for students at the undergraduate level to perceive their capabilities and find ways to overcome with challenges in meeting their academic responsibilities. This requires academic resilience, which is a key defense mechanism that undergraduate students should possess. Resilience is the ability to withstand various academic challenges. This study purposed to examine the differences in academic resilience among male and female students writing theses. The study used a quantitative method with 166 participants who were writing theses. The selction of the sample was done through purposive sampling. The study used an academic resilience scale adapted from Wibowo (2018) based on the aspects of academic resilience according to Cassidy (2016). The data were analyzed using a parametric test, the Independent Sample T-Test. The results showed that there were no significant differences in academic resilience between male and female students writing theses.
