The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of polyaspartic acid. More particularly, the present invention relates to a manufacturing method of polyaspartic acid comprising steps of carrying out condensation polymerization of maleic anhydride and ammonia in the presence of a polar solvent without active hydrogen to give polysuccinimide and hydrolyzing the resulting polysuccinimide to obtain polyaspartic acid. Specifically, the present invention is characterized in that the quality of the synthetic product, polysuccinimide and polyaspartic acid, is improved by minimizing the decomposition and the degradation of the maleic acid during the process of the polymerization resulted from the introduction of substituent to maleic acid.
