摘要:The main aim of this study is to find out the awareness level of graduate students about electromagnetic pollution which is responsible for an important part of environmental pollution in today’s developing science and technological conditions. For this reason, a case study was conducted with a total of 24 graduate students from 5 different universities in Turkey. Data was collected via individual interviews with the help of a form involving 7 open ended questions and analyzed in terms of content analysis. According to the results; natural science students were found to be more conscious about electromagnetic pollution both in terms of its significance and the precautions that should be taken when compared to the social sciences students. To improve this consequence, all students should be made aware of the significance of this issue. The conduction of projects about environmental pollution and giving place to this issue in several elective course contents might be useful at this aspect for all university students.
