摘要：This study aims to determine the demopgraphics of the Science and Mathematics teachers’ woringat the Ministry of National Education (MNE). In addition, it is aimed to address the quantitative data withregards to the departments offering Science and Mathematics teacher education departments, the faculties havingthe necessary departments to train Science and Mathematics teachers. For this purpose, the teachers who areemployed according to the data gathered from the Ministry of Human Resources (August, 2012) and instructorsemployed in science and mathematics departments of the universities in the 2011-2012 academic year wereselected as the participant group of the study. In this descriptive design, the study aims to analyze the currentstate of the pre-service teacher training departments of the science and mathematics departments and the teacherswho are currently employed in the MNE. The data were obtained from the frequency and percentage distributionby examining through a situation analysis and comparisons were made . Universities , in the field of science andmathematics education within the formal education emphasize the importance of their role and purposes. 51.9%of theMNE teachers graduated from the faculties of education , 14.1% were graduates from the faculties ofscience and letters. It is observed that there is a redundancy in physics, chemistry and biology teachers; however,in the fields of science and technology, primary-school level of mathematics and mathematics teacher arelacking. However, considering the number of teacher candidates awaiting to be appointed to become MNEteachers, the redundancy of the current graduates stand out.
