Abstract (English): Research on university students' leisure is relevant because it provides crucial insights for designing educational and social interventions that promote a healthy balance between academic pursuits and the overall well-being of young people in contemporary society. Thus, the study aimed to investigate the typology, conceptualization, accessibility, and demands of the University of Salamanca students regarding their leisure and free time. A qualitative methodology was applied, focusing on capturing students' subjective experiences and interpretations through the analysis of narratives derived from openended questions in a specially designed questionnaire, considering the reviewed literature. The sample consisted of 487 students from the University of Salamanca. After conducting content analysis with the assistance of Computer-Aided Qualitative Data Analysis NVivo12, it is concluded that the majority consider their leisure time related to health, with predominantly healthy habits, experiencing satisfaction, relaxation, release, and enjoyment, engaging primarily in group sports activities, along with music-related activities, cultural events, attending talks and conferences, cultural visits, and volunteering. Additionally, they express a demand for increased travel and excursions, as well as social activities for socializing. Finally, researching this reality from the perspectives of pedagogy and social education is fundamental for applying participatory pedagogical approaches and intervention strategies that promote students' personal and social development, thus fostering an inclusive and enriching leisure culture.

Abstract (Portuguese): A investigação sobre o tempo livre dos estudantes universitários é relevante porque fornece informações cruciais para a conceção de intervenções educativas e sociais que promovam um equilíbrio saudável entre o ambiente académico e o bem-estar geral dos jovens na sociedade contemporânea. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo conhecer a tipologia, a concetualização, a acessibilidade e as exigências dos estudantes da Universidade de Salamanca em relação ao seu tempo livre e de lazer. Aplicou-se a metodologia qualitativa, onde o foco da informação foi a captação das experiências subjectivas e interpretações dos estudantes através da análise de narrativas a partir de questões abertas de um questionário elaborado ad hoc tendo em conta a literatura revista. A amostra foi constituída por 487 estudantes da Universidade de Salamanca. Após a realização da análise de conteúdo com a ajuda do programa Computer-Aided Qualitative Data Analysis NVivo12, concluiu-se que a maioria considera que o seu tempo livre está relacionado com a saúde e que os seus hábitos tendem a ser saudáveis, sentem satisfação, relaxamento, libertação e diversão, participam preferencialmente em actividades desportivas, mais em grupo do que individualmente, juntamente com actividades relacionadas com a música, actividades culturais, participação em palestras e conferências, visitas culturais e voluntariado. Exigem também um aumento das viagens e excursões, bem como das actividades sociais. Finalmente, a investigação desta realidade na perspetiva da pedagogia e da educação social é essencial para aplicar abordagens pedagógicas participativas e estratégias de intervenção que favoreçam o desenvolvimento pessoal e social dos alunos, promovendo assim uma cultura de lazer inclusiva e enriquecedora.
