The aim of our research is to reveal the factor structure and to identify the main factors of the physical development and physical capacity of the studied population. Subject of the study are the factors of physical development and physical capacity of students. Object of the study are 41 student girls from UNWE. The following research methods were used to solve the aim and tasks of the study: Theoretical analysis, anthropometry, sports-pedagogical testing, mathematical and statistical methods. Six morpho-functional indicators were used to assess the physical development, including calculation of Body Mass Index (BMI). In order to determine the physical capacity of the students, 8 indicators were tested. In order to process the results of the study, we used: Variable and Factor Analysis - To reveal the factor structure and to identify the main factors of physical development and physical capacity in the studied population. Correlation matrices are factorized by the main component method, followed by Varimax orthogonal rotation (Wainer, Braun, 1988). The factor structure of the physical development and the physical capacity of the students studied by us from the University of National and World Economy is made up of 5 main factors, which in their entirety explain the high percentage of the initial variance of the studied phenomenon - 76.51%.
