Increasing awareness of breast cancer risk requires knowledge to identify risk factors, symptoms, attitudes, and behaviors for conducting breast screening. However, the facts showed that most female students from non-medical university students had not had adequate awareness of breast cancer prevention. This study aimed to investigate breast cancer awareness among female non-medical university students. This study used quantitative design with cross-sectional design. A sampling technique used a non-probability sampling technique which conducted to 370 non-medical students. A modified Breast Cancers Awareness Scale (BCAS-1) questionnaire was used to measure level awareness of students regarding risk factors of breast cancer. The results showed that most respondents were 19 years old (51.4%) and most respondents (69.2%) have a moderate level of awareness. The level of awareness has five domains, all of respondents which are mostly moderate: knowledge about risk factors (72.4%); signs of breast cancer (54.6%); attitudes toward breast cancer prevention (71.1%); barriers to screening (70.5%), and behaviours related to breast cancer awareness (66.5%). This study concluded that non-medical students had moderate knowledge, so it is recommended a health promotion and special training to perform breast self-examination regularly for university students, especially non-medical students.
