To identify the obstacles facing the diabetic students to achieve an accepted self-management; 4. To assess the impact of the interventional program on overcoming such obstacles; and 5. To assess the impact of diabetes self-management on glycemic control among diabetic students in Assiut University All university students who suffer from diabetes and attend the study's clinic seeking medical treatment during a full academic year (2023/2024) with inclusion and exclusion criteria are recruited. The sample is divided into 150 cases for intervention group and 150 for control group (traditional care), by Systemic random technique.
