The population of the study consisted of a total of 474 students studying in a state universitys dentistry faculty, and the sample consisted of 226 students who volunteered to participate in the study. A personal information form and the Attitude Scale towards Brain Drain were used as data collection tools. EpiInfo and R statistical programs were used to analyze the data.

In the country preferences of students considering brain migration, Germany ranked first 18.5, followed by the United States 13.7 and England 11.1.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmada bir devlet üniversitesinin diş hekimliği fakültesi öğrencilerinin beyin göçüne yönelik tutumlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırma tanımlayıcı nitelikte kesitsel bir çalışmadır. Çalışmanın evrenini Karabük Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesinde öğrenim gören toplam 474 öğrenci, örneklemini ise çalışmaya katılmaya gönüllü 226 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veri toplama aracı olarak kişisel bilgi formu ile Beyin Göçüne Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde Epi Info Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Attlanta, Georgia, USA ve R istatistik programları Auckland University, New Zeland kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmada katılımcıların 68,1i diş hekimliği eğitimini tamamladıktan sonra yurtdışında çalışmayı düşündüklerini belirtmiştir. Beyin göçü düşünen öğrencilerin ülke tercihlerinde, Almanyanın birinci sırada 18,5, Amerika Birleşik DevletleriABDnin ikinci sırada 13,7 ve İngilterenin üçüncü sırada 11,1 yer aldığı görülmüştür. Katılımcıların 29u dil kursu veya eğitimi için hazırlık yaptığını belirtmiştir. Öğrencilerin Türkiye dışında çalışma düşüncesinde etkili olan öncelikli nedenler arasında daha iyi ekonomik koşullar 22,6, daha iyi bir yaşam tarzı 17,8, daha iyi çalışma koşulları 15,7 ve Türkiyedeki ekonomik ve siyasi istikrarsızlığın 15,3 yer aldığı tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç: Çalışma sonucunda diş hekimliği fakültesi öğrencilerinin çoğunluğunun mezuniyet sonrası yurt dışında çalışmayı düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin göç tercihi üzerinde etkili olan çekici ve itici faktörlere yönelik politik ve yasal düzenlemeler yapılması, nitelikli sağlık işgücünün elde tutulması açısından değerlidir.
