Abstract
In recent years, with growth in number of universities to overcome the lack of educational environments in the country, several universities have been shaped within inappropriate spaces without considering quantitative and qualitative needs of users. Nevertheless, this approach can have various negative impacts on users including decline in vitality of space, lack of association with academic environment and loss of sense of belonging which all eventually can affect the quality of education. This paper aims to find out how university spaces can interact with their urban context which may influence the quality of space to increase sense of belonging among the users. The paper employs descriptive analytical methodology. Data is collected from various secondary sources and available literature on the topic. After analysing the data, paper concludes that university campuses can develop their interaction with urban context through balancing enclosure and permeability, using university campuses as urban public spaces and sharing facilities with community.
