Nowadays, the rapid change in science and technology shows its effect in the field of education as in every field. To raise individuals who can keep up with this change, we first need to make changes in the education system and our teaching-learning approach. STEM education and coding education have rapidly gained popularity in countries moving in this direction. In this study, it was aimed to examine the prospective science teachers' processes of preparing the robotics activity by integrating science and mathematics and their thoughts about this process. The research was carried out with the participation of three (3) prospective science teachers in the spring term of 2020-2021. In the research, the case study design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. A semi-structured interview form prepared by the researchers and observation notes were used to collect the data. "Robotis Dream II" set was used in the preparation of robotics activities. The obtained data were analyzed by content analysis method. As a result, after they prepared the activity, they stated that they were able to master the disciplines’ objectives well, to make connection between the disciplines and to use the robotics education kit. They also stated that they had difficulties to transfer the integrated objectives from science and mathematics disciplines and to assemble the robot.
