The study aims to identify the reality of the organizational structure, administrative and technical performance, and the relationship between the organizational structure and the administrative and technical performance of the Student Activities Department inthe Collages of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at the University of Kirkuk (henceforth SAD-COPE-UOK). The researcher used a descriptive approach (survey) for this purpose.The sample was selected intentionally represented by the head and members of the (SAD-COPE-UOK) using a comprehensive inventory method. The study population consisted of (43) individuals—thus, the total number of participants in the basic sample was (43), representing (100%) of the study population. The study was implemented from 1/10/2018 to 1/12/2019.The most important results of the study were the deficiencies in the organizational structure of the (SAD-UOK), which showed that there is a strong positive (significant) relationship between the organizational structure and the administrative and technical performance of the student activities department.One of the most important recommendations of this study is to develop an organizational structure of the (SAD) by defining the terms of reference and responsibilities and giving employees more power to make important decisions. Conducting similar studies on the organizational structure and its relationship with administrative and technical performance in Iraqi universities is also recommended.
