In this study was aimed to determine affect the choice of profession, career selection qualifications and the effect of media literacy on the choice of profession in health sciences students. The descriptive and cross-sectional research was carried out on a University Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Dentistry, Nursing Department, Nutrition and Dietetics Department, Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department, Health Management Department undergraduate programs. The students who accepted to participate constituted the sample group. “Student Identification Form", “Media Literacy Scale” and “The Scale of Occupational Choice Capability” were applied. While 91.9% of the participants chose the section “willingly” and "interest" factor was the most important factor in. While 0.9% of the students stated they used the Internet "very rarely", 91% stated they used it “every day", and it was found they used the Internet 4.77±4.31 hours per day. A positive and significant relationship was found between the students' scores from " The Scale of Occupational Choice Capability” and “Media Literacy Scale" and this relationship was found to be weakly.
