DEPARTMENT OF HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT

In many countries around the world, including Türkiye, the healthcare sector is experiencing rapid and continuous change. In addition to this change, the complexity of healthcare systems, the increase in public and private healthcare institutions, and the need for these institutions to be managed with a contemporary management approach have led to a growing demand for professional healthcare managers who are trained in the field of Healthcare Management.

The Department of Healthcare Management, which examines all areas of healthcare from a managerial perspective, aims to ensure the efficient, effective, and quality management of all resources and opportunities that make up the healthcare system, based on the needs of society. It focuses on developing policies and plans in this regard and aims to train healthcare managers who are well-versed in the field, highly qualified, capable of strong communication with both healthcare workers and patients, strategic thinkers, visionary, problem-solvers, and who have embraced ethical and moral values. In addition to professional competence, these managers are equipped with cultural and scientific knowledge, eager and willing to participate in social responsibility activities for the benefit of society, and committed to contributing to scientific, cultural, and social life.
