The most important objective of education is the manipulation of knowledge in all fields through acquaintance of the educational methods which could enrich them with notions, imagination, and focusing on thinking the skills. The significance of the research paper embarks from the importance of the technical educational outcomes, as well as the significance of engineering in improving geometric thinking. The research paper aims at identifying the "levels of geometric thinking among the technical institute students/ Baquba" via their answers in the geometric thinking test that is comprising of (48) multiple choice items distributed on the first four levels set by Van Hiele (recognition, analysis, ordering, deduction). Moreover, the validity of the test is examined by a group of experts to calculate the item-to-item relation, item-to-scale relation, item-to-field relation and field-to-field relation by applying it to a sample of (30) male and female students. Next, the test is applied on a sample of (140) second year students/ Department of Electricity. The results showed that (31.4%) of students are below the recognition of the level, (10%) of them are in the recognition level, (5%) are in the analysis level, (3.5%) in the ordering level, and finally (3.5%) in the deduction level.
