Sleep deprivation is nothing but not getting a required amount of sleep. It can also affect our whole
system. This may be due to stress in school, college, family or in a job. It includes behavioural
components which may be problematic in the college campuses. Most of the time sleep deprivation is
caused due to the intake of alcohol, drugs, caffeine and energy drinks and some other prescribed or
non-prescribed stimulants.The main aim of this survey was to create awareness about effects of sleep
deprivation among college students.This study was conducted among college students to spread the
awareness about effect of sleep deprivation on health status among college students. A self structured
questionnaire was prepared and circulated among college students through online survey planet link
and the data was obtained and statistically analyzed. From the study population, 100% of the
participants gave a positive response when asked if they were aware about sleep deprivation and its
effects.. From the results we may conclude that the majority of the college students are suffering from
sleep deprivation. Seminars may be conducted in educational institutions, workplaces to create
awareness on the deleterious effects of sleep deprivation on health status among the community.
