Abstract
This research seeks to understand the factors that influence the quality of life of university teachers; therefore, the objective of the study is to determine the quality of life of university teachers in a marginal area of the district of Puente Piedra in northern Lima. It is a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional and non-experimental study, with a population of 270 inhabitants who answered a questionnaire of sociodemographic data and the instrument for quality of life. The results show that 17,4 % (n=47) of the inhabitants have a poor quality of life, 56,3 % (n=152) have a moderately good quality of life, and 26,3 % (n=71) have a good quality of life. In conclusion, it is necessary to highlight the need to intervene specifically in the improvement of the quality of life of the elderly, as social and integral service programs for their general wellbeing.
