High school projects are carried out with the aim of contributing to the development processes of more qualified human power. Whatever the area is, it is of great importance for students to recognize, use and reflect the research done in universal values and standards in their own projects. One of the main objectives of the Science and Art Centers (BILSEM), which supports special talented individuals in our country, is to ensure that these individuals carry out projects by providing scientific work discipline. Students who are trained in the field of general mental skills in the BILSEM can prepare their projects in accordance with the content of a scientific research and participate in qualified competitions, while students in the field of visual arts talent have seen that the projects they prepare are far from the scientific research content. In this study at Izmit Science and Arts Center in the 2018-2019 educational year, five students in the field of visual arts project program have been attempted to determine what their views on the projects they prepare according to scientific or visual research methods. In this study, the quality research method was used and designed with phenomenology (olgubilim). Interviews consisting of semi-configured questions from data collection tools were used. The answers students to these questions are examined by content analysis. The data, accessed codes and themes are placed in the findings and made tables. The contribution of the projects prepared with research questions to students, the strengths and weaknesses that students see in themselves during the project preparation process, the factors in the determination of the project subjects by students and the findings on what the factors that students will notice when they prepare a new project are interpreted. Students who participated in the research showed both qualified project studies and achieved significant achievements in this process.
