Materials & Methods: The universe of the research consists of students studying at the faculty of sports sciences at 7 Aralık Üniversitesi and physical education and sports colleges. The sample of the study consists of a total of 453 students, 210 male and 243 female, who were randomly selected from among the students. A personal information form developed by the researchers was used to collect information about the independent variables.

Independent sample T-Test and ANOVA Test were used in the analysis of the data. In the analyses, the level of significance was determined as p<0.05. Results: In the findings, it was determined that while there was a significant difference according to the age variable of the department and the variable of active sports involvement, there was no significant difference on the sportsmanship orientation in terms of the gender variable and the variable of the department they studied. Conclusion: When we examine the multidimensional sportsmanship orientations of the faculty of sports sciences and physical education and sports school students in terms of different variables, it has been concluded that the older students exhibitmore sportsmanship attitudes, and the students who do active sports have more sportsmanship orientations than those who do not do sports.
