Health promotion is a comprehensive process that includes supporting knowledge, skills, and environmental conditions to improve the health levels of individuals and communities. In nursing practice, health promotion plays a critical role in guiding, educating, and raising awareness among individuals about health. Learning foundational knowledge in health promotion allows first-year nursing students to provide more informed and effective health counseling as they gain clinical experience. Enhancing health awareness among first-year nursing students is vital not only for their personal health but also for their future professional competency. Developing awareness of healthy living can positively influence students' health behaviors, empowering them to make more informed health decisions. Awareness of healthy living habits also helps students acquire knowledge in areas such as stress management, nutrition, exercise, and sleep, which can improve their performance in clinical practice. Moreover, nursing students' level of health literacy is crucial for sustaining health behaviors throughout life. Nurses with high health literacy are better equipped to interpret health information effectively, leading to more informed decisions in patient care and healthcare delivery. Therefore, it is essential that nursing students have a high level of health literacy, as it is necessary for their personal development and for maintaining the health of the individuals they serve. Salutogenesis is an approach that focuses on the factors that support and enhance health rather than simply the absence of disease. This approach emphasizes the active role individuals play in maintaining and improving their health. Thus, it is believed that developing salutogenic health perspectives in nursing students from the beginning of their education is important. This study will be conducted to determine the effects of education aimed at health promotion on nursing students' awareness of healthy living, salutogenic health indicators, and health literacy.
