This study adopted a qualitative approach and applied content analysis to present a model for the quality of college life emphasizing on educational facilities. Indexed articles on the quality of college life were obtained from some prestigious academic databases in education. Articles on the quality of college life published outside Iran between 1992 and 2019 and those published in national databases between 2011 and 2019, were analyzed. A survey was also performed with some faculty members selected through convenience purposive sampling. After coding and categorizing 74 initial questions, their content validity was confirmed in two ways: qualitative (the opinion of 10 experts in the field of educational management) and quantitative (testing the relevance of each item through content validity ratio (CVR). Low validity questions were removed and finally 62 items were approved. Using the Holsti coefficient, the reliability of the questionnaire was estimated to be 0.91. An inductive approach to content analysis showed that four components of research facilities, learning opportunities, assessment and educational facilities were some variables that formed the quality of college life with an emphasis on educational facilities. Given the important role that university graduates play for the society in reaching its goals, the criteria suggested in the proposed model can help decision makers improve quality of college life among students with an emphasis on educational facilities.

This study was carried out to predict academic burnout based on quality of college life and hope for employment among university students. The research method of study was correlational descriptive. The statistical community included all undergraduate university students living in Mohaghegh Ardibili University dormitories in academic year 2015-16, among whom there were selected 210 sample individuals using available sampling method. For data collection, there were employed Sirgy et al's questionnaire on quality of college life, Ghoreishirad's questionnaire on hope for employment and Bersos et al's questionnaire on academic burnout. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis. The findings indicated that there exists a significant negative relationship between the quality of college life and hope for employment in one hand and academic burnout on the other hand. Also regression analysis revealed that academic burnout can be predicted negatively with determination coefficient of %19 by quality of college life and hope for employment. Therefore, it can be concluded that the quality of college life and hope for employment may be taken into account as the important variables in relevance to the academic burnout of the university students.
