Abstract
A survey of research evidences indicate that sex, type of institution, educational qualification and birth order of their study are closely associated with college student’s level of scientific interest. Thus, most of the studies have been conducted on school going children and others but a very limited attempt has been made to enhance scientific interest among college students level. So it is necessary to undertake a study for identifying the factors that are responsible for the scientific interest among college students. The present research is an effort to find out such factors and the influence of various variables like- sex, type of institution, educational qualification and birth order on scientific interest. The study has been conducted on a sample of 380 college students to examine the effect of the scientific interest. The sample of the college students has been taken of those college students who are studying in graduate and post graduate in Vellore District. The random sampling technique was used in this study. The data was analyzed statistically by using mean, S.D. t-test & F test and the study revealed that entire sample of the college student shows the average level of scientific interest.
