One of the goals of higher education institutions is to develop competent human resources. Supporting this aim requires contributions and involvement by lecturers and employees (academic staff) within the scope of the institution.

Using a cross-sectional approach and used convenience sampling techniques, data was collected from 360 lecturers and employees (administration staff) using an organizational climate scale (CLIOR), a work engagement scale (UWES 9) and a psychological capital scale (Psycap-12). This study was conducted at university X with as participants. The results showed that psychological capital mediated the relationship between organizational climate and work engagement. The findings enhance understandings of organizational climate, which serves as an essential resource for employees by stimulating psychological capital such that they are engaged in their work and give their best performance thus, contributing toward the achievement of organizational goals.
