Opinion polls over the last decade show that, in line with the tension in relations, support for the European Union (EU) has been constantly decreasing. Public support is necessary for Turkey, as a EU candidate country for full membership to the EU. Within the context of the accession negotiations to the EU, under Turkey’s EU Communication Strategy, the public opinion of Turkey should also be prepared for membership. In this context, it is very important to measure the support of the Turkish people to the EU. The main objective of this research is to reveal the Kafkas University students’ opinions about the EU and Turkey-EU relations and compare the results obtained with the results of previous studies. The universe of the research consists of 20,000 students enrolled in Kafkas University. The research, conducted between 01.05.2019 and 07.01.2019, was applied to 384 students from all faculties and high schools of Kafkas University. The data obtained were analyzed with the SPSS 13 program. The data obtained were compared with previous studies and it has been observed that the rate of support for the EU membership of Kafkas University students is very low.
