Purpose: Paying attention to how to train human resources to 
administer and perform health-therapeutic services is of particular 
importance. Career expectations and attitudes that students have 
about their future careers should be properly known, because career 
expectations and its role in creating employment and thus economic 
growth cannot be ignored. For this purpose, it is necessary to have 
information about the current situation and students' attitudes. Based 
on this, this study was conducted with the aim of determining the 
degree of satisfaction of medical librarianship and informatics 
students of the country's medical sciences universities with their 
field of study and their views on their field of study and their future 
careers.

undergraduate and postgraduate levels, which include universities 
of medical sciences in Isfahan, Ahvaz, Bushehr, Tehran, Tabriz, 
Shahid Beheshti, Kerman, Iran, and Hamadan were conducted. The 
sample size for this study was estimated to be 148 people. The data

low (1 point). Finally, the obtained information was analyzed by 
descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, average) and analytical 
tests (independent t and chi-square) using SPSS software version 26
