- Abstract
Quality of life is a widely used as the theoretical framework for assessing living conditions in a society. It can be said that as the level of satisfaction increases, which can be summarized as the level of meeting the needs of the individual and society in any subject, the quality of life of that society also increases. When the needs of people for urban space are met, the satisfaction with the place increases. This positively affects the perception of urban life quality. As the university campuses have higher number of users compared to many urban areas, the topic of "quality of life in university campuses" is one of the research motivations that can be addressed in quality of urban life studies. In this study, factors affecting the campus satisfaction and perception of quality of campus life of Gebze Technical University students were determined. The study explains an urban design issue with an analytical approach. The stratified sampling method was adopted in selecting 355 undergraduate students from Gebze Technical University who were subjected to questionnaire survey. The results from the survey were put onto SPSS 20.0 program where descriptive statistics, reliability analyses, factor analyses, one-way variance (ANOVA) analyses and regression analyses relating to university quality of life were run. As a result of the analysis, there is a three-factor structure in campus satisfaction. Students' academic and administrative satisfaction is high, their satisfaction with the services is moderate, and their satisfaction with social activities is low. As students' satisfaction on academic and administrative opportunities, services, and social and cultural aspects increase, their perception of quality of campus life also increases.
