The aim of this study is to examine the attitude of secondary school students towards science and science course. The descriptive survey model, in which participants' views, interests, skills, abilities and attitudes can be determined, was chosen from the general screening models in order to determine the attitudes of the students towards the Science and Science course. The research was carried out with 197 secondary school students (46 fifth, 36 sixth, 60 seventh , 55 eighth grade students) at the public school in Sarıyer, İstanbul. The Attitude Scale of Science Lesson was applied as a data collection tool. Frequency ratios of the data obtained were calculated. According to the results of the research, it was observed that the attitudes of the students towards the science course were positive, but their attitudes towards science were not positive and they had prejudices about this subject.Keywords
