In this research, it is aimed to determine the professional knowledge of the third grade prospective science teachers on entrepreneurship skills. 141 third grade prospective science teachers participated in the study which was conducted by field scanning method. The data were collected with an entrepreneurship skills recognition test consisting of open-ended questions at the end of the spring semester of the 2017-2018 academic year. The data obtained were analyzed through content analysis by taking entrepreneurship skills indicators into account. As a result of the research, it was determined that science teacher candidates were insufficient in explaining the characteristics of individuals with entrepreneurial skills and designing activities to improve these characteristics. Prospective science teachers could not design any activity to develop entrepreneurship skills of secondary school students. Although there is no one among the candidates designing a tool that can measure entrepreneurship skills vocationally enough, few could explain the measurement tool inadequately. There is no prospective teacher explaining how the evaluation process must be after the assessment. In general, it was concluded from the current research that the prospective science teachers' professional knowledge on the processes of bringing secondary school students entrepreneurship skills in the science course, measuring and evaluating was insufficient.
