Beşeri coğrafi görünümün önemli bir parçası olan kentler, içinde yaşayanlar tarafından farklı şekillerde algılanmaktadır. Kent imajı insanların deneyimi sonucu ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu deneyim kentle ilgili inançlar, fikirler ve izlenimler üzerinde oldukça etkilidir. Algının kentsel mekânın anlaşılması, organize edilmesi ve bir takım problemlerinin çözümünde önemli bir yeri vardır. Öte yandan kentlerin eksikliklerini gidermek, olumsuz taraflarını düzeltmek ve kentte farkındalığı artırmak için öğrencilerin kentsel değerlendirme imajı bilinmelidir. Bu çalışmada Siirt Üniversitesi’nde eğitim gören öğrencilerin perspektifinden, Siirt kenti imajına ilişkin algılarının ölçülmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın temelini Siirt Üniversitesi öğrencilerinin Siirt kentini nasıl algıladıkları ve öğrencilerin bakışına göre kent imajının nasıl olduğu oluşturmaktadır. Bu kapsamda Siirt Üniversitesi’nin lisans ve ön lisans bölümlerinin son sınıflarında okuyan 380 öğrenciye anket uygulanmıştır. Anket çalışmasıyla birlikte üniversite öğrencilerinin perspektifinden, kentin üstünlük imajları, kentin soyut imajları ve kent halkına yönelik imajlar tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcıların tümü birlikte değerlendirildiğinde iklim ve lezzetli yemekler yüksek imaja sahip ifadelerdir. Yeşil alan, sanatsal etkinlikler, konaklama imkânları, sportif ve kültürel faaliyetler, alışveriş olanakları, sanayi ve ekonomik koşullar ile ilgili katılımcı imajları da düşük olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Katılımcıların Siirt’i sakin ve az gelişmiş bir kent olarak algıladıkları gözlenmektedir. Ayrıca Siirt Üniversitesi öğrencileri, Siirt halkını dindar, gelenekçi ve sıkıcı olarak ifade etmektedir. Sonuç olarak katılımcıların Siirt kent imajlarının düşük olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Üniversite öğrencileri, kent halkının kendilerini benimsemediklerini, dolayısıyla kent ile bütünleşemediklerini belirtmişlerdir.
Cities, which are an important part of the human geographical appearance, are perceived in different ways by the inhabitants. The image of the city is a result of people’s experience. This experience has a great impact on the beliefs, ideas and impressions about the city. The perception has an important role in understanding, organizing and solving a number of problems in the urban area. On the other hand, the urban evaluation image of students should be known to address the cities’ deficiencies, to correct their negative sides and to increase awareness in the city. In this study; from the perspective of students studying at Siirt University, the aim is to measure their perceptions of the Siirt city image. The basis of the study is how Siirt University students perceive the Siirt city and how the city image is according to the students' perspective. In this context, an survey was applied to 380 students studying in the last classes of Siirt University's bachelor's and pre-graduate departments. With the survey study; from the perspective of university students, the images of the city’s superiority, the abstract images of the city and the images of the city’s people were identified. When all of the participants are evaluated together; the climate and delicious meals are high-image expressions. It is also understood that the participant images related to green spaces, art events, accommodation, sports and cultural activities, shopping opportunities, industrial and economic conditions are also low. The participants observed that Siirt was perceived as a quiet and less developed city. Also, Siirt University students express the Siirt people as religious, traditional and boring. As a result, it is clear that the participants’ Siirt city images are low. University students have stated that the city people do not accept themselves, and therefore do not integrate with the city.
