With the decision of the Presidency, it was officially decided to establish a Faculty of Medicine within Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University (MAKÜ). The decision published in the Official Gazette brought great joy to Burdur and our university.
In line with the decision enacted with the signature of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, it was officially decided to establish a Faculty of Medicine within our university.
Our university, which already has a strong healthcare education infrastructure such as the Faculty and Hospital of Dentistry, Faculty of Health Sciences, Bucak School of Health, Burdur Vocational School of Health Services, and Gölhisar Vocational School of Health Services, aims to further strengthen its academic capacity in the field of health with this new faculty. At the same time, the official establishment of the Faculty of Medicine, which has been one of Burdur's most important expectations for years, will increase access to qualified health services in our province and provide strategic contributions to the region's health vision.
MAKÜ officially took its place among the prestigious universities in Turkey with a faculty of medicine
Rector Prof. Dr. Hüseyin Dalgar, in his statement on the subject, said, “The decision to establish a Faculty of Medicine is a historic step that will strategically expand our University's research capacity in the field of health sciences, its power to train qualified human resources, and its contribution to regional health services.
At the same time, with this important step, our university has officially taken its place among the prestigious universities in Turkey with a faculty of medicine.
I wholeheartedly believe that this development, which will contribute to our country's health vision and scientific development, will add value to the academic, social, and economic future of our entire region, especially Burdur.
In this important process, I express my gratitude to our President Mr. Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, our Speaker of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey Mr. Prof. Dr. Numan Kurtulmuş, and our President of the Council of Higher Education Mr. Prof. Dr. Erol Özvar. I also thank our province's deputy Mr. Prof. Dr. Adem Korkmaz, who closely followed the process and made great efforts in its conclusion, our province's deputy Mr. Mustafa Oğuz, our Provincial Health Directorate, and all members who signed the senate decision, and I wish our Faculty of Medicine to be beneficial to our university, our city, and our nation.” He expressed.
Congratulations to Burdur
As the MAKÜ family, we are very pleased to share this proud development with the public, and we wish our Faculty of Medicine to be beneficial to our Burdur, our region, and our country.
