Purpose: Development of a methodology for assessing the development of urban agglomerations and calculating the level of their development. Discussion: The article presents the theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of the diagnosis of the regional economic area, explores the existing methodological and methodological approaches to assess the development of urban agglomerations. The development of the territory is assessed by indicators of the population settlement system and transport accessibility of the satellite zone to the core of the agglomeration. But since the object of our study is agglomeration formed in a territory with a diverse economic structure and a complex spatial and demographic characteristic, the above set of indicators for assessing the level of development is not enough. Results: A technique is proposed that determines the sequence of actions in the formation of urban agglomerations. The level of development of the urban agglomeration is analyzed. Indicators are proposed for assessing the level of agglomeration development, which were applied on the materials of the Barnaul agglomeration. In the subregion we are considering, the urbanized type of territorial and economic structure dominates. However, the inclusion of rural municipalities in the agglomeration changes the type of urban agglomeration to industrial-agriculture agglomeration.

The contribution of universities to economic structure, social and physical insfrastructure, the quality of life and city, and the level of education cannot be regarded. Therefore, it should be provided that university campuses should be areas which reflect city image with their physical structures. In this regard, the effective administration, usage, and development of universities, and the coordination between the units of universities should also be provided. One of the most significant elements of this coordination and cooperation is on campus transportation. One of the main purposes of the thesis is to evaluate inner campus transportation which is the sub-unit of city transportation. Other purposes are to determine the reasons of the perception of the users in reference to their demographic features on campus transportation and the reasons of their preferences of a particular transportation option. A survey study has been conducted in order to measure inner campus transportation perceptions. In this regard, 1112 questionnaire forms have been analysed by the software programme of SPSS. Expression analysis of the reliability, frequency distribution and factors are obtained, and differences were identified by ANOVA and T-TEST analysis.
