Online learning has become an indispensable part of course delivery methodologies since the onset of COVID-19 and it is essential that we understand the learning process in terms of time-of-the-day effects to improve its efficiency.  This is a must as productivity may vary during different times of the day depending on the cognitive nature of academic tasks based on the courses learnt online. This paper studies the student engagement patterns of STEM and non-STEM courses among undergraduate students while learning online using a learning management system (LMS). Results show that between STEM and non-STEM courses there is not much of a difference in terms of student engagement in terms of time-of-the-day, while there was variation observed in terms of average duration attended between STEM and non-STEM courses.
