This study has three variables, those being: Engagement, Job Crafting and Turnover Rate. For the purpose of this investigation, the target audience is all university students, their ages varying significantly, nevertheless focusing more on those who’s ages range from 17 to 27. The researcher seeks to understand what can be done to achieve the best results when it comes to students being enrolled in tertiary education, as such we use the variables stated above to study how these can have a positive effect on individuals and reduce turnover rates. It was acknowledged with this study that was realized that out of the three types of Job Crafting both Task Performance and Cognitive Job Crafting dimension have a significant and positive impact on Perceived Performance meaning that both these dimensions have a compelling effect on students Engagement. In reference to Job Crafting none of the predictor variables of Job Crafting have a significant impact on the Turnover Rate, which in this study is perceived as intention of staying. However, on the other side results proved that Student Engagement has a positive and significant effect on Turnover rate (intention of staying) the more a student is engaged in his work, environment and community the more willing he will be to stay.engEngagementJob craftingTurnover intentionUniversity studentsmaster thesis202452174
