Midwifery

Hello, I'm Birgül Ekici. I am a 4th year student of the Department of Midwifery at Inonu University Faculty of Health Sciences. Our department is located in the central campus. The purpose of our department is to help and support women in pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum periods. Theoretical, application and laboratory courses are given in our department. First of all, we take theoretical courses and work on anatomical models in laboratories to reinforce our theoretical courses. Then we reinforce our clinical knowledge by going to practice, i.e. internship. We have 2 technical classrooms in our department. We do the application parts of our theoretical courses that we see during the semester in these technical classrooms. In our department, we are going have internships from the 2nd semester of the 1st grade. We are in internships in the 2nd and 3rd grades. In the 4th grade, we are actively working in clinical fields as intern midwives. In addition, we have some graduation criteria that we must complete during our undergraduate education. These are: to help at least 40 pregnant women to give birth and to provide care by monitoring the health of at least 40 risky pregnant women. After graduating from our department, we can work as a midwife or nurse in any health institution. My profession begins with the existence of Humankind. As a woman myself, I chose this profession to help women. Inonu University is a well-established university. It is well-equipped as an education institute and has a strong staff. At the same time, it offers many social, cultural, artistic and sporting activities to its students. That's why I chose Inonu University. I want to progress academically after I graduate. I want to be a scientist. Our university's campus is pretty good. It is also very rich in social cultural sporting and artistic activities. Therefore, I recommend students to choose our university. I wish success to the candidates who will take the exam. It’s a privilege to be a part of İnönü University
