It was intended in this study to ascertain the relationship between the levels of alienation of the education faculty students, and their attitudes towards the teaching profession. The sample of the research was composed of the 875 students appointed via simple random sampling out of the total population of 2600 of the Education Faculty of Adiyaman University. "Personal Information Form", "Student Alienation Scale", and "Scale of Attitude towards Teaching Profession" were used so as to collect respective data. In the data analysis, t-test for independent groups was conducted so as to determine whether the alienation levels and the attitudes towards the teaching profession varied according to the variables of gender and mode of teaching, while One-Way Analysis of Variance was performed so as to determine whether there was any differentiation according to the variables of program type and class, and Tukey HSD test was computed so as to determine the source of the intergroup difference. Regression analysis was used in order to determine the level of the relationship between the levels of alienation and the attitudes towards the teaching profession. Out of the obtained findings, it was seen that the students experienced a medium level of alienation, while their attitudes towards the teaching profession were at a high level. In the two dimensions, according to the variables of gender and class, meaningful differences were only seen at the level of alienation in view of the variable of the mode of teaching, and the same was seen at the dimension of attitudes towards the teaching profession in view of the program type variable. Meanwhile, a medium level of negative relationship was found between the level of alienation and the attitudes towards the teaching profession.
