Özet:

Turkey has begun to rapidly adapt to the economic and political developments in the world. Furthermore, Turkey’s mission to become an important energy corridor, primarily in its own geography, and its efforts to reduce energy dependency by producing its own energy also confirms the claim to be a regional power. In this direction, the construction of a nuclear power plant in Turkey continued and planned in recent periods is the agenda. The nature of nuclear energy that is facing us as a sociological-scientific subject causes discussions, but many times these discussions can not exceed the distinction from scientific knowledge or being a political party. While one section provides serious support on the establishment, the other section is discomforting even when the name of this energy source is mentioned, even trying to prevent such investments. However, as Turkey is a rapidly growing and growing country, energy demand is increasing. Therefore, Turkey needs to be focused on sustainable energy security resources in order to meet its needs. The aim of this study is to determine the opinions of the faculty members regarding the other nuclear power plants that are ongoing and included in the investment plan. This study is a qualitative research and is designed as a phenomenology method. The research participants are formed by teachers who work at the University of Kırşehir Ahi Evran Education Faculty. In the collection of data, a conversation form consisting of eight semi-configured open end questions was used. Imaginary content analysis is used in the analysis of data. The study found that the majority of the teachers had a view on the use of alternative energy sources in place of nuclear power plants and that some of them had a view on the use of alternative energy sources. It has also been determined that the majority of teachers don’t want to live near nuclear power plants and understand the issue of energy security as energy-oriented security.
