[4] Študa is a sprawling settlement south of the main core of Domžale.

It lies along the lower reaches of Mlinščica Creek, a tributary of the Kamnik Bistrica.

[2][5] The soil in the area is sandy and the fields to the south are intensely cultivated.

[2][6]: 56  During the Middle Ages, the various farms in Študa were held in feud to a variety of estates (Smlednik, Bogenšperk, Križ, and Bokavce) and parishes (Mengeš and Kamnik).

[2][6]: 7  A radio transmitter capable of broadcasting across Slovenia was set up in the meadow west of Študa in 1928.
