Rendahnya keterampilan investigatif dan interpretasi data ilmiah pada mahasiswa calon guru Sekolah Dasar di berbagai wilayah Indonesia menjadi latar belakang penelitian ini, khususnya pada mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Guru Sekolah Dasar (PGSD) Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Negeri Medan (UNIMED) yang belum banyak dipetakan secara komprehensif dan berdampak pada kualitas pembelajaran sains di sekolah dasar. Penelitian ini bertujuan memetakan kemampuan literasi sains mahasiswa PGSD UNIMED berdasarkan kerangka PISA 2025. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif, melibatkan 200 mahasiswa yang dipilih melalui teknik stratified random sampling berdasarkan semester, dilaksanakan di PGSD FIP UNIMED selama kurang lebih dua bulan pada semester genap. Alur penelitian meliputi penyusunan-validasi instrumen, uji coba, pengambilan data, dan analisis. Data dikumpulkan melalui tes literasi sains, kuesioner, dan wawancara semi-terstruktur, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif. Hasil menunjukkan literasi sains berada pada kategori sedang, dengan skor tertinggi pada aspek menjelaskan fenomena ilmiah (68,09; 44,5% kategori tinggi), diikuti pengambilan keputusan ilmiah (60,76; 78% sedang), dan terendah pada penyelidikan ilmiah (56,22; hanya 11% tinggi). Disimpulkan bahwa penguasaan konsep lebih unggul dibanding keterampilan ilmiah praktis, sehingga direkomendasikan penguatan pembelajaran berbasis inkuiri, proyek, dan STEM secara terstruktur.
