Scientific spirit with its components such as curiosity, extent of deliberation, deep-thinking, foresight, the spirit of tolerance, divergent and creative thinking, is among the most important university assets which are acquisitive through training. Using survey method and questionnaire, this study examines factors which have influence on student’s scientific spirit. The method of sampling in this study is the method of appropriate category; based on Cochron pattern, 338 individuals are chosen as our sample. The findings of the research showed that the variables such as the field of study and interest in it, professor- student relations, and the attitude of other people towards student's field of study are highly influential on the scientific spirit of university students. It also became clear that the university’s support of scientific-research activities and the levels of educational facilities do not affect the scientific spirit of the students.
