“As a Medical Laboratory Technology student, I spend two full days a week doing bench work, pipetting, culturing, reading slides. Uskudar University also arranged my hospital practicum placement, so I never had to search alone.”

“In my third year of Medicine at Uskudar University, hospital rotations at the affiliated NP hospitals started earlier than friends at other schools reported. Examining real patients, supervised closely, taught me more than any textbook chapter.”
