Bu calisma, universite ogrencilerinin universite kavramini tanimlamak icin kullandiklari mecaz ifadeleri saptamak amaciyla yapilmistir. Veri toplamak amaciyla katilimcilardan “Universite ... gibidir cunku ...” cumlesini tamamlamalari istenmistir. Verilerin analizinde hem nitel hem de nicel yontemler kullanilmistir.Arastirmanin bulgularina gore, 837 katilimci 13 kavramsal tema altinda universite kavramina iliskin toplam 335 adet gecerli metafor uretmistir. Belirlenen kavramsal kategoriler ile cinsiyet, fakulte ve yas degiskenleri arasindan anlamli iliski saptanmamistir. Arastirma sonuclarinin yuksekogretim yoneticilerine, politika yapicilara ve akademisyenlere universite kavraminin ogrenciler tarafindan nasil algilandigini saptamada onemli veri saglayacagi dusunulmektedir
