University students often find it difficult to keep a healthy balance between academic demands and personal well-being. Adopting a healthy way of life is significant for their physical and mental health. This research aimed to analyze and assess university students' healthy lifestyle patterns in the context of gender. Data was collected from 75 students of B.Ed (Hons) through a questionnaire based on indicators of life style patterns and habits. The study found that most students have regular mealtimes with breakfast, lunch and dinner. Students eat fruits and vegetables, but rarely eat fast food. Majority has less sleep hours, low water intake, and rarely engages in physical activity. There is difference among male and female students in use of screen entertainment and experience moderate stress levels, with infrequent use of stress management techniques. The study suggested that universities should implement programs to promote healthy lifestyles for all students.
