The development of legal culture among students constitutes a pivotal element in fostering responsible citizenship and sustainable societal governance. This study examines the mechanisms through which legal awareness and normative understanding can be effectively instilled within higher education contexts, with particular emphasis on motivational drivers that enhance active engagement in legal and civic processes. Drawing upon contemporary pedagogical theories and empirical evidence, the research investigates the interplay between cognitive, affective, and behavioral dimensions of legal culture, highlighting the critical role of interactive and participatory learning methods. Furthermore, the study situates these processes within broader socio-cultural and institutional frameworks, analyzing the factors that facilitate or hinder the internalization of legal norms. The findings underscore the necessity of integrating multidimensional motivational strategies, including intrinsic incentives, peer influence, and structured experiential learning, to cultivate a deeply rooted legal culture that transcends mere theoretical knowledge. By bridging theoretical constructs with practical applications, this research contributes to the discourse on legal education reform and the promotion of civic responsibility among emerging adult populations in diverse educational settings.
