Popis: Purpose: This research was conducted aiming to identify the strategies of the student education policy from the perspective of the intra-university stakeholders (including faculty members, the Leaders representative office, student and cultural/social vice chancellor personnel, and student societies), as well as the strategic assumptions of student education in universities. Methodology: In this research, a qualitative approach was used for data analysis. For this purpose, 15 experts were selected from different groups of stakeholders applying purpose-based sampling technique. Conducting in-depth semi-structured interviews with them, strategies were developed based on thematic analysis method. Using convenience sampling method, these strategies were sent to academics in the framework of an online questionnaire and were validated after 104 responses were acquired. The strategic assumptions were also identified in the same way. Findings: Research findings include 40 policy strategies based on the opinions and views of four groups of intra-university stakeholders. The identified strategies were based on several strategic assumptions, on 26 of which the academics are unanimous. Originality: In this research, for the first time, views of four groups of intra-university stakeholders were examined to formulate the policy strategies of the student education based on strategic assumptions, which were validated by the participation of academics.
