The trainings given to produce from learning methods and techniques to problem-solving provide permanence in learning. There is a need for regulations so that they can develop the necessary knowledge and skills regarding science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) education and increase the STEAM workforce in the country. In order for the education to be supported by technology, the teachers who provide education should have the qualification for these technologies. In this study, it is aimed to determine the opinions of prospective teachers studying in the science department, who are important stakeholders of the learning–teaching process, about STEAM education, which attracts great attention in the world. It is a prerequisite for this study for them to have taken the STEAM application in their courses. It is thought that this study, which deals with an up-to-date teaching approach, will be important for programme developers and science educators and to determine the opinions of prospective teachers who will give education in the future about this technology. The study is a case study from the qualitative research method design. For the research data, open-ended questions were prepared by the researchers, after obtaining expert opinions. The study group of the research consisted of 45 senior students studying science teaching at a private university. As a result of the research, it was concluded that the STEAM application was effective in teaching. It was stated that positive gains were achieved in students with the inclusion of art in the science, technology, engineering and mathematic activity. It was concluded that some preparations should be made before and during the implementation of the STEAM activity. Keywords: Technology, STEAM education, science, pre-service teacher, teaching;
