Objective: The research was conducted to determine the reasons of university students taking "Sexual Health” course for choosing it.

The research population consisted of all 64 sophomore students (10 male, 54 female) studying at Karadeniz Technical University, Faculty of Health Sciences Department of Nursing and taking "Sexual Health" lesson as an elective course.  Developed by researchers, "Feedback Form on the Sexual Health Course" was used as a data collection tool.
