Abstract
This study surveys understanding of force and motion concept among students taking Diploma of Science in UPSI. Their understanding were measured by Force Concept Inventory (FCI). Students understanding were compared with national level and to their demographic variables such as gender and academic background in Physics. 134 students and 2 lecturers participated in this study. t -test was used to analyze the difference of student conceptual knowledge with students demographic variables which is gender and student academic background in high school Physics. Results show that the UPSI's normalized gain is comparable to the national level. The level of students' conceptual knowledge according to the demographic variables are found significant, minima and hold strong Aristotelian beliefs about force and motion.
