Dear Students,

Welcome to the Faculty of Health Sciences. First of all, I wish you a year full of hope, health and success. Our Faculty of Health Sciences consists of three departments: Nutrition and Dietetics, Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation and Nursing. The main purpose of our faculty is to train health professionals of the future who have ethical values, are responsible towards society, think, have a passion for learning, research, are creative, innovative, sharing and integrative.

Nowadays, our population, especially our elderly population, is increasing and our life expectancy is extending. However, the healthcare sector continues to grow. As a result, the demand for qualified healthcare professionals will increase as these tendencies continue.

Employment in healthcare is projected to continue to grow much faster than the average for all other professions. There is a dire need for educated graduates with comprehensive knowledge of health-related issues. In our education system that blends theory and practice, our students acquire the necessary skills and competencies and complete them in clinical environments. Thus, many career paths can be opened for our graduating students. Our faculty's website contains more information about the purpose of our programs, the structure, standards and philosophy of education. We invite you to visit our campus in person or virtually tour our university, and speak with our students and faculty members. 

Wishing you healthy days, see you
Prof. Dr. Asiye GÜL
