This study aimed to determine the orientation that motivates students at Electrical Engineering Department of Manado State Polytechnic to learn English through the blended learning method and how the students' attitudes towards the applied model. This study is quantitative and qualitative. The data collection method is through a questionnaire based on a measuring instrument developed by Gardner, namely The Attitude/ Motivation Test Battery (AMTB). Data were analyzed and tested based on a Likert scale. Based on the results of tests on 31 students majoring in electrical engineering, the survey results showed that 56, 48% stated that a better job opportunity would encourage student motivation in learning English through Blended-Learning. The results and discussion founded types of student motivation that are dominantly integrative and instrumental motivation towards blended learning based on Gardner's theory.
