This article provides an in-depth exploration of the current state of health-preserving thinking among university students, emphasizing its growing importance in the broader context of higher education. As the global landscape continues to shift under the influence of technological advancement, urbanization, and rising mental health challenges, the role of universities has evolved beyond academic instruction to include the holistic development of students’ well-being. The research highlights how physical, mental, emotional, and social dimensions of health must be consciously cultivated through pedagogical strategies, policy frameworks, and institutional culture. Special attention is given to the integration of health-oriented content into curricula, the impact of psychosocial support systems, and the importance of student self-regulation and personal responsibility.
