Abstract This study aims to look into the factors about how signs in campus facilities are perceived. To this end, it examined human information gathering ability regarding signs in the construction space according to three analysis techniques. For the method of the study, it used the semantic differential method(SD) to know information system. For assessment scale, it used 5-point and 7-point bipolar scales, and quantified characteristics of hidden factors. Besides, as to the analysis content and technique, it used factor analysis, reliability analysis, MDS(multi dimensional scaling). The subjects of the study were four buildings in C Engineering College, and the subjects of the survey were students. In conclusion, it is possible to know the relations between human and space through attached signs and the importance of sign types deciding cognition of the space by signs. In short, university facilities are constructed by different departments and various functions, so searching space location by visitors and departments considered fixed cognition by earlier information gathering and designs of inner space regarding a sign, a space, and a recognizer important.
