Student stories

What students say

The genetics laboratories at Biruni are better equipped than anywhere I trained in Cairo, we run our own PCR and sequencing work instead of just watching demonstrations. My thesis supervisor replies to emails within a day.

I worried about adapting to Istanbul, but the periodontology department is genuinely international, half my classmates came from abroad like me. The clinic coordinator helped me translate and notarize my dental diploma for the equivalence process.
