This study researches variables related to the childbirth intention of college students. The general ideal number of children of the college students is 2.4±0.8 persons and the average hope number of children appears 2.3±1.0 persons. In general variables, the higher subjective economic level is and the happier the family members are, the intention appears high. Also, in the case that the father has a job, the childbirth intention is high. In the variables related to study stress, the more the major study stress is, the higher the intention is. The childbirth hope of each average grade appears that grades C, A and B are higher than a grade D. The variables related to employment stress and the recognition about child-care environment and birth policy do not show significant differences from the childbirth intention. In the variables of marriage and hope of having children, the case of wanting to marry, the case of thinking of need of children, the case that general ideal number of children is more than 2, the case that the number of children they hope is more than 2, show that the intention of childbirth is high. The result of this study investigates the variables that influence on low birth rate and can be used for the basic data to understand the national crisis that the society with low birth rate can cause. In addition, it can be useful for the development and implement of public health education to increase the birthrate of college students and for the establishment of effective policy to encourage childbirth.
