They said that they carried out research becausethey want to improve themselves (73.7%), learn how to do a research (57.9%) and contribute to improvements of theirprofessions (44.4%). 79.7% of participants have decided to do the research and 43.6% have determined the study issuesthemselves. They were supported by their advisors (98.4%) and friends (53.5%) for their scientific activities, and 91.3%of participants found their advisors’ supports sufficient. 67.7% of attendants have also got economical supports and70% of them were supported by their families. Students said that their problem solving skills are improved by doingresearch (66.9%), they learned teamwork (66.2%), writing and communication (57.9%), but lack of sufficient time wastheir major problem (84.2%). A significant number of students wanted to maintain their scientific activities to makeacademic career (92.5%) and practice their profession (89.5%) in the future. Findings suggest that almost all of theparticipants desired to do the research to resume their scientific activities and to have an academic career. Further, it isclear that academic activities let the students gain some skills like problem solving and team-work.
