This study covered 50 female and 52 male, 102 student in total with a mean age of 22.213.46, attending in faculty of sports science in university of Gazi. To the students who have attended the research study; height, body weight, body mass index, with the pedometer physical activity level measurements and  questionnaire form of 10 questions generated by researchers have been applied. Physical activity level has been evaluated with the average of 1 week step numbers. SPSS 23.0 Statistical package was used for analyzing the data. Through the analysis of the data, percentage, frequency, T-test for independent samples, single factorial variance analysis  ANOVA , Tukey  HSD  test, and correlation analysis have been used. According to the findings of the research study; when BMI of students of Faculty of Sports Sciences it can be seen  that 86.3% of them have good fitness, 9.8% of them  have over weight and 3.9% of them are in obesity  level. When physical activity levels are reviewed  majority of the students  47.1%   have sedantery  lifestyle, following this on the second row  23.5%   of them are low active individuals and as the least   15.7%  are active and highly active individuals. As  a consequence, while Faculty of Sports Sciences  students have generally sedantery lifestyle they are  at good fitness levels, as long as Daily usage periods  of computer increases weekly stepm numbers  decrease thus physical activity levels are influenced  in a bad way, and as long as ages increase or  sleeping periods decrease television watching  periods decrease, and as long as computer usage  period increase body mass index is influenced badly  and the women step numbers are lower compared to  men thus physical activity levels are lower</p></abstract>
