The study group consists of 349 prospective teachers who were studying in the first, second, third and fourth grade levels of Kastamonu University Faculty of Education classroom education undergraduate program in the spring term of 2018-2019 academic year. Ecological Footprint Awareness Scale was used as data gathering tool. In the analysis of the data, t-test for independent groups and one-way ANOVA were used for multiple comparisons. For the findings of research, ecological footprint awareness of teacher candidates were examined in terms of gender, class level and settlements variables. When the results obtained from this study were examined in general, it was determined that female teacher candidates had higher ecological footprint awareness than male teacher candidates. In addition, it was observed that pre-service teachers in the fourth grade had higher ecological footprint awareness than pre-service teachers who were at the other grade levels. However, it has been found that the pre-service teachers, who have been living in the city, have higher ecological footprint awareness than the pre-service teachers, who have been living in the village.
