Sense of purpose is a stable and generalizable intention to accomplish something meaningful to oneself while at the same time leading to a fruitful engagement with some aspects of the world beyond oneself, i.e. an individual's determination to do something that he or she seeks to achieve to benefit himself or herself and others. The current research was aimed at measuring the sense of purpose among university students and identifying differences in the sense of purpose according to sex variables (male-female) and specialization (scientifichuman). In the theoretical context, Damon's theory (Damon,2003) was addressed, which is the theory against which a tool was prepared to measure the sense of purpose. The apparent validity and discriminatory power have been extracted, besides, finding the relationship of the items’ score with the total sum and using the method of the relationship of the field to the field and the field to the total score, and the construction validity was extracted through exploratory factor analysis, and the reliability coefficient was reached by the re-test method (0.75), and by the Cronbach’s alpha method (0.73). The results showed that the research sample has a sense of purpose, there are no statistically significant differences according to the sex variable (malefemale), and there are statistically significant differences according to the specialization variable (scientific-human) in favor of human, there is no significant interaction between the variables (gender and specialization). Thus, according to the results of the current research, the researcher came up with several recommendations and suggestions.
