Abstract
Electronic waste (e-waste) is a growing global problem of WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment), including both functional and damaged items. The study aimed to assess the university's electronic waste production and the level of awareness among respondents. The data gathered from the survey paints a detailed picture of respondents' demographics, awareness, and practices related to electronic devices and e-Waste management. Daily electronic device usage patterns reveal the ubiquitous nature of cell phones and laptops in respondents' lives, showcasing the indispensable role of these technologies. Moreover, the collective acknowledgment of the hazardous nature of electronic waste and recognition of specific electronic devices as potential sources of environmental harm are noteworthy. The survey's findings underscore the collective responsibility to safeguard the environment by making informed choices in the realm of electronics. It also calls for ongoing efforts to raise awareness and educate individuals from diverse demographics and educational backgrounds about sustainable electronic device use and disposal.
