The data has been analyzed by a computer statistics programme, SPSS. We found that no significant mean difference was observed according to gender and years in school as independent variables (p > 0.05). However, significant differences were found between science education department and biology department students (F = 5.472, df = 1 p < 0.05). Science educatithird and fourth-year students of university who have been studying to become primary science on department students showed significantly higher positive attitudes biotechnology and biotechnological applications than did biology department students.
