In this study, it was aimed to examine the perceptions and attitudes of university students towards the control and vaccine of Covid-19. In addition, the differences between the perceptions and attitudes of the students according to their departments, health education status and whether they have a Covid-19 case in their environment were examined. The population of the research consists of 730 students at a foundation university. The sample consists of 304 students based on the 95% confidence interval. Differences between variables were analyzed by independent sample t-test. As a finding of the research, the average of the students' attitudes towards the vaccine was 3.09±0,68; control perception averages were determined as 2.820,53. According to the departments and health education status of the students, their perception of control towards the Covid-19 pandemic and the positive attitude sub-dimension towards the Covid-19 vaccine statistically differed significantly (p<0.05). However, it was determined that there was no statistically significant difference according to the negative attitude sub-dimension and the status of being a patient diagnosed with Covid-19 (p>0.05). As a result, It is obvious that the students of the Human Resources Management department need health information to increase their awareness of the disease and to blunt their anti-vaccination attitudes. Health information and disease management courses can be added to the Human Resources Management curriculum. Training, symposiums, and panels on immunization can be organized for students. With the help of these, unfounded information pollution against vaccination should be eliminated and students should be encouraged to vaccinate.
