Abstract: Effective time management is a crucial aspect of any individual. Factors such as a hectic schedule, procrastination, stress caused by changes, etc. create the need for time management. Furthermore, improper time management makes an individual feel unable to cope with the duties assigned to him and creates a feeling of instability and chaos. The research included students from the Faculty of Economics and Business and the School of Tourism and Hospitality at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. A total of 908 respondents were surveyed as part of the study. The study aims to determine the characteristics of students' time management at Tbilisi State University at different levels of education. In addition, to identify the main challenges students face while managing their time. Several important hypotheses were formulated during the research process: Hypothesis 1: Level of education and use/non-use of any time management model influence the ability to work according to plan, academic record, and possible deviation from the plan; Hypothesis 2: There is a significant difference between the means of the number of respondents for the ability to work according to plan, balancing study and leisure time, academic record, and deviation from the plan in the undergraduate, master's, and doctoral groups. Quantitative research was chosen as the research methodology. The obtained data were processed using the statistical software package SPSS. Quantitative research enables to generalize findings and analyze data using statistical methods. Based on the study's findings, significant recommendations were created, the consideration of which will contribute to the effective planning of students' time.
