The increasing integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital technologies into higher education has created new opportunities to support the learning process. However, the effectiveness of technology utilization is not solely determined by technical availability, but also by students' active involvement in learning activities. This study aims to analyze the role of AI utilization and digital infrastructure in enhancing learning effectiveness, with student engagement serving as a mediating variable among students at Institut Teknologi Kalimantan. A quantitative survey approach was administered to 347 active students across faculties and cohorts selected through multistage stratified sampling. Data were gathered using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with a second-order construct through the Hierarchical Component Model. The results demonstrate that AI usage and digital infrastructure exert positive and significant effects on student engagement and learning effectiveness. Furthermore, student engagement partially mediates the effects of AI usage and digital infrastructure on learning effectiveness, with AI usage exhibiting a more dominant total contribution. ABSTRAK Perkembangan Artificial Intelligence (AI) dan teknologi digital telah memberikan peluang baru dalam mendukung proses pembelajaran di perguruan tinggi. Namun, efektivitas pemanfaatan teknologi tidak hanya ditentukan oleh ketersediaan fasilitas semata, melainkan juga oleh keterlibatan aktif mahasiswa dalam proses akademik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran pemanfaatan AI dan infrastruktur digital dalam meningkatkan efektivitas belajar dengan keterlibatan mahasiswa (student engagement) sebagai variabel mediasi pada mahasiswa Institut Teknologi Kalimantan. Pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei diterapkan kepada 347 mahasiswa aktif dari berbagai fakultas dan angkatan yang dipilih melalui teknik multistage stratified sampling. Pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner skala Likert lima tingkat dan dianalisis menggunakan Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) dengan model konstruk tingkat kedua melalui Hierarchical Component Model. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan AI dan infrastruktur digital berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap keterlibatan mahasiswa serta efektivitas belajar. Selain itu, keterlibatan mahasiswa terbukti memediasi secara parsial pengaruh penggunaan AI dan infrastruktur digital terhadap efektivitas belajar, dengan pemanfaatan AI memberikan kontribusi total yang lebih dominan.
