تهدف الدراسة إلى تعرف اتجاهات طلبة تخصص التربية الخاصة في الجامعة الهاشمية نحو تخصصهم. تم استخدام المنهجية المختلطة وتم تطبيق البحث على 73 طالب ليقدروا اتجاهاتهم نحو تخصصهم على استبيان الاتجاهات، ثم تم إجراء مقابلات شبه مقننة مع 15 طالب. وأظهرت النتائج أن اتجاهات الطلبة كانت متوسطة نحو تخصصهم، كما أظهر ما نسبته 47.9% من الطلبة اتجاهات سلبية نحو تخصصهم. ولم يكن هناك أثر دال لكل من الحالة الاجتماعية، ومعدل الثانوية العامة، ومعدل الجامعة التراكمي على اتجاهات الطلبة. وفي نهاية البحث تم تقديم مجموعة من التوصيات والاقتراحات لتحسين اتجاهات الطلبة نحو تخصص التربية الخاصة.

		This study examines the attitudes of special education (SE) student teachers at Hashemite University towards their specialization. A mixed-methods design was employed, and 73 students were asked to rank their attitudes towards their specialization on an attitude scale, with 15 students later participating in semi-structured interviews. The results revealed the neutral attitudes of students toward their specialization, with 47.9% reporting negative attitudes. The findings of this study revealed that there was no significant effect of marital status, secondary school grade average or university grade average on these attitudes. The university selection process should be changed to include desirable criteria and interviews should be conducted with students to determine their level of desire and awareness of their specialization. A number of recommendations and suggestions are presented for improving student teachers’ attitudes towards SE specialization. These improvements may include changes to the program acceptance process, practicum conditions, and conducting awareness and induction programs for students to better understand SE and the categories and work opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
