College and university professors are the most significant group of professionals for our
nation's future. Hence, it is surprising to see that many college and university professors still
don't like their professions today. Work happiness among college and university professors
benefits not only students but also, the society. It improves performance in the classroom in
colleges and universities. Each society's ability to function depends on the role that teacher and
how he performs. Teachers are the students' primary source of direction during all of the key
phases of their academic careers. Teachers who are happy in their positions are better able to
focus and give more of themselves to their work. This study was conducted to determine the
elements that influence college and university professors' overall levels of satisfaction for the
same purpose. The secondary sources of collection of the data were used in this study. The
researcher attempted to gather information about job satisfaction of college and university
professors from secondary sources through extensive study (journals, dissertations, thesis,
books, etc.) There are two types of job satisfaction: extrinsic, which includes things like pay
and working conditions, and intrinsic, which includes things like creativity and
accomplishment. When workers are satisfied with their jobs, they are more invested in them
and are more likely to put in extra effort. Thus; Conclusion is made that factors plays an
influencing role in job satisfaction
