Abstract :The aim of the research was to measure the earthquake knowledge levels of associate degree students. The research population consisted of 653 students studying in associate degree programs at Hakkari University, Vocational School of Health Services (VSHS). 417 students participated in the research. The survey research model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. Two survey forms were utilized to collect data. One of the forms, the \"Demographic and Descriptive Characteristics Form,\" involved 9 items, and the other one, the \"Earthquake Information Level Form,\" consisted of 25 items. To determine the students\' earthquake knowledge, the relationship between the total score of the earthquake knowledge level scale and the mean scores of its sub-dimensions and the students\' independent variables was examined. Independent Variables T-test and One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) parametric tests were used to reveal this relationship. No significant difference was found between gender, age, and grade level variables and earthquake knowledge levels of Hakkari University VSHS students (p>0.05). It was observed that the earthquake knowledge of students who were studying in the First and Emergency Aid Program, who previously experienced a severe earthquake, who were disaster volunteers, and who received earthquake training were significantly higher than those in other groups. In addition to the fact that earthquake education should be present in theory and practice throughout one\'s educational life, it can be recommended that it be effectively integrated into the curriculum of programs, especially in universities.Keywords : Deprem, Deprem Farkındalığı, t-Testi, ANOVA-Testi, Hakkari Üniversitesi
