The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of postures, duration, and frequency of work with Musculoskeletal disorders due to laptop usage on college students in architecture departement of engineering, Diponegoro University. This type of research was explanatory research with cross sectional approach. The population which used in this study were 127 with a sample of 60 students. It analyzed by using univariate and bivariate with Chi-square test. The results showed almost all respondents had complained on Musculoskeletal disorders, which was 91,7 percent. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between work postures (p-value 0,03) and duration of work (p-value 0,03) with Musculoskeletal disorders due to laptop usage on college students in architecture departement of engineering, Diponegoro University. There was no correlation between the frequency of work with Musculoskeletal disorders due to laptop usage on college students in architecture departement of engineering, Diponegoro University (p-value 0,0676).
