Dean's Message
Dear Students,
We are very pleased to have you with us at our Faculty of Health Sciences.
Our newly established University operates in the field of health with units such as the Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Dentistry, Faculty of Health Sciences, Vocational School of Health Services, and Graduate School.
At our Faculty of Health Sciences, we train “Health Professionals” who are competent in their field and will benefit and contribute to society through applied education and training in seven different departments.
Our faculty, which offers four-year undergraduate programs, admitted its first students in the 2020–2021 academic year and began graduating students as of the end of the 2023–2024 academic year.
Our institution has managed to develop itself in a short time and become recognized both in our country and in neighboring countries. As a result, the number of both new and graduating students, including foreign students, is increasing every year.
With our student-centered education approach, we aim to become a university recognized internationally for its high standards, qualified graduates, and contributions to society, nature, and the future. We will achieve this goal together with you.
We have confidence in ourselves. We have experienced, competent, and expert academic staff, and we continue to strengthen our team by welcoming distinguished new faculty members.
Dear Students, my advice to you is to make the most of the knowledge and experience you can gain from your highly qualified instructors. Embrace their exemplary attitudes. To achieve this, attend all your classes and practical sessions. Engage in scientific discussions and exchanges of ideas. This is how you can maximize your success throughout your education.
By this, I do not only refer to academic success. Broaden your perspective and cultural awareness by participating in meetings and events. Become part of student communities. Develop yourselves through mutual interaction and prepare for life. Our University and Faculty provide these opportunities—we support you and will continue to do so.
We aspire to educate all our students as well-rounded, ethically grounded, and socially responsible health professionals. Our administration, academic staff, and administrative personnel work hand in hand, day and night, toward this common goal.
As the Dean, my door and the doors of all your professors are always open to you. If you have any question, feedback, or suggestions, you can always reach out to us.
As your instructors, we share with you the knowledge, experience, and universal thinking that we have gained over many years in distinguished institutions in our country and abroad. Your responsibility is to learn these, to use them for the benefit of patients and society, and to develop appropriate solutions and new methods when necessary.
Dear Families of Our Students,
You have entrusted your young children to us. Rest assured, with our caring and experienced faculty, we approach them with the understanding that “Your children are our children as well.” We welcomed them as recent high school graduates, and we will send them off as young professionals who can earn their livelihood and contribute to society and their country.
Some of these young students, whom we have raised with great care, will one day fill the positions of their teachers at our faculty. You can be sure of that.
If they ever need support, let us provide it together to ensure they grow into the best versions of themselves in every way.
Dear students, we love you,
I wish you all successful years of education and learning.
Prof. Dr. Erol Gökel Dean
Faculty of Health Sciences
