High school `science` in the 2009 revised curriculum in Korea was developed for the purpose of enhancing students` scientific literacy needed for citizenship in a democratic society. For this analysis, `science` includes a variety of scientific topics from the origin of the universe to the birth of life, and the relationship between technology and modern society. It aims to make students understand the process of scientific inquiry and foster interest and curiosity about science. On the other hand, interest has been studied as a psychological construct to affect academic achievement and career selection of students. In this study, the authors investigated students` interest in high school `science` in view of the 2009 revised curriculum. To carry this out, a survey tool was developed according to previous research, with 997 high school students` responses analyzed with descriptive statistics and factor analysis. The result showed that the students` interest in high school `science` in view of the 2009 revised curriculum can be interpreted into three dimensions such as motivation, activity, and topic, which has several sub-dimensions. Students` interest in motivation dimension was higher than in activity or topic dimension, while the average value was slightly higher than the middle value. They showed different distribution of interest by gender and job orientation, especially in activity and topic dimensions. From this study, the authors can infer the multi-dimensional property of students` interest in high school `Science` and the different distribution of interest by dimensions.
