This research is to describe metacognition profile of female and male mathematics' pre-service teachers in understanding the concept of integral calculus. The subjects of this study are one female and 1 male mathematics' pre-service teachers who have studied integral calculus. This research type is an explorative study with the qualitative approach. The main data collection of this research was obtained by using Interview technique. In addition, there are supporting data which is the result of the written work of research subjects (SP) in understanding the question of integral calculus. The results of this study are as follows: There is a difference in metacognition profiles between male and female mathematics' pre-service teachers in the understanding concept of integral calculus in the interpreting category, especially the definite integral concept. While in the category of exemplifying, there is no difference in metacognition profile between male and female mathematics' pre-service teachers either the definite integral concept and the indefinite integral concept. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
