1. General Information
The Department of Physiology was founded at 1981. The facilities of the department could respond then to only 80 undergraduate students at the beginning, but today it can respond to approximately 250 students. Today our department maintains education and research activities with 10 academic personals. The scientific facilities of the department give opportunities to do research in 7 different physiological laboratories. (see Department facilities).
2. Qualification
Physiology diploma is given to students who successfully coplete the program.
3. Level of Qualification
Ph.D. in physiology
4. Admission and Enrollment Terms
Health Science Institute Graduate Terms apply.
The applicant must have a diploma in Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary , M.Sc. degree in Physiology, M.Sc. degree in Medical Biology and Genetics or for other degrees to complete the scientific preparation program of physiology.
5. Recognition of Former Educations
If applied for, this is decided by the Academic Council of Physiology Department and Board of Directors of Health Sciences Institute.
6. Qualification Requirements and Terms
The student must succeed all the courses that selected by the advisor and must complete a minimum of 63 ECTS credits out of these courses. The average score of these courses must not be under 3.00. The student must be successful in the proficiency exam and submit a successful Ph.D. thesis that include a physiological laboratory study.
