In Colombia, 7,497 youths among 10 and 30 years old live with HIV/AIDS. Objective: Determine the association between the study area and the knowledge and behaviours in relation to the transmission of HIV/AIDS in the students of the Universidad Industrial de Santander. Methodology: Cross-sectional population survey. Stratified sampling. Survey about knowledge and behaviours related with the transmission of HIV/AIDS in 213 students of the following study areas: health, basics sciences, engineering and humanities.The statistic analysis applied logistic regression. Results: 101 women and 112 men were studied. Mean age was 22 years. 13.2% of health, 27.2% of basics sciences, 30.0% of engineering and 29.6% of humanities. Most of them know the way of transmission of HIV, 19% doesnt consider that to have sexual relations down the effect of alcohol is a risk practice for acquired it; 96% know that the condom must be used during all time of the sexual relation; 79.8% had sexual relations but only 26.4% of them said use always the condom.
