Computer Programming Self-Efficacy Levels of Engineering Bachelor Students at Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU)

This study assessed Computer Programming Self-Efficacy (CPSE) Levels of engineering bachelor students at Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU). The research method of this study was quantitative method, using the survey technique furthermore a questionnaire with two sections consisting of demographic information plus a computer programming self-efficacy scale, was distributed among 510 engineering students from five different engineering departments, including Computer Engineering, Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering and Civil Engineering departments. According to the results the CPSE level of engineering students at EMU can be measured as an average level also in some computer programming related tasks female have a higher CPSE level than male, on the other hand by comparing 5 engineering departments, it can be said that Computer Engineering and Electrical-Electronics Engineering students have a higher CPSE level than others however Civil Engineering students had the lowest CPSE level. Additionally, there was no noteworthy difference among students according to their grade (class level) but overall the CPSE level of 4th Year students were higher than others. Keywords: Self-Efficacy, Computer Programming Self-Efficacy, Engineering Students.
