Hamidiye Faculty of Medicine

Hello, I'm Eren Ömer Tekeli, a 3rd year student at Hamidiye Medical Faculty. Hamidiye Faculty of Medicine is one of the 9 medical faculties within the University of Health Sciences. Our faculty is located in the Hamidiye Complex in Üsküdar, Haydarpaşa. The purpose of the faculty is to train physicians who implement a holistic approach to health, who are researchers, who have values and responsibilities. Medical education lasts for 6 years. We receive theoretical training for the first 3 years, and clinical and practical training for the second 3 years.We take courses such as Anatomy, Biochemistry, Histology, Physiology. We also take courses such as Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Internal Medicine during our internships. I can say that the laboratory facilities of our faculty are quite optimized. Each student receives one piece of equipment. We use these equipment in our applied courses such as Histology, Microbiology and Anatomy. We also take our Vocational Skills applied courses in our laboratories. In these courses, we learn the basic skills necessary to become a physician. We undertake our internships in the 4th and 5th grades at the Faculty of Medicine. These are basic internships such as Obstetrics, Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, General Surgery. We also have additional internships in the fifth year. These internships focus on Eye, Ear Nose and Throat treatments. When we graduate from our department, we can work as physicians in many fields. These can be institutions such as private hospitals, public hospitals, non-governmental organizations, laboratories. Depending on the score you will get with the specialization exam, you can choose one of the basic or clinical fields. These can be the fundamental sciences such as physiology or clinical sciences such as surgery. I chose the Faculty of Medicine because I love helping people, taking care of them and being there for them. I chose our university because of the laboratories, internships and the opportunities it offers in different hospitals. Before enrolling in the faculty, I wanted to apply for Neurosurgery, but I focused on internal sciences such as Cardiology and Neurology within the faculty. I can recommend the candidates who will choose our university to consider clinical and internship benefits offered by our university. I wish success to the candidates who will take the exam and choose our department.
