The participants were 59, 2-year nursing students (29 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group) attending 1 university located in D City. Cadaver practice education program was performed 3 sessions combined 3 hours theoretical explanation and 4 hours cadaver practice a session. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, ${\chi}^2$ test, and t-test with the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The results of the study indicate that the cadaver practice education were effective in the experimental group reported a significant increase in self-efficacy(t=2.62, p=.028), attitude to death(t=5.67, p=.000), and nursing professional self-concept(t=2.57, p=.013) compared to students in the control group in nursing students. The results of the study indicate that the cadaver practice education was effective in increasing self-efficacy, attitude to death, and nursing professional self-concept of nursing students.
