Post Graduate Program of Reproductive Biology and Clinical Embryology with thesis in the Deparment of Medicine-Histology and Embryology has began by the Graduate School of Health Sciences since 2014.

The department offers the second cycles of higher education in terms of ECTS credits (90-120 credits, awarding a Master´s degree). After the successful completion of the program and fulfillment of requirements, a master’s degree in Reproductive Biology and Clinical Embryology is awarded

Second Cycle

The provisions in “Regulation on Transfer among Associate and Undergraduate Degree Programs, Double Major, and Subspecialty and the Principals of Credit Transfer among Institutions in Higher Education Institutions” are applied.

In order to receive a post graduate degree in Reproductive Biology and Clinical Embryology, students must take minimum 21 and maximum 28 credits (equivalent to 90-120 ECTS credits) from the compulsory and elective courses that the program includes and get a 70 points out of 100 for each course. The students who take at least 7 courses that are available in Post Graduate Programs of the department or other related departments, complete all of them successfully, and defend his/her thesis before a jury are regarded qualified

Post Graduate Program with thesis is composed of four semesters. The first half of it includes courses and thesis preparation process and the second half of it involves the stage of writing up and completing the thesis.
The goal of the Program is to ensure that students have basic equipment about reproductive biology and embryology, fundamentals of developmental biology applications in medicine and scientific research. These information will be presented to the students in theoric lectures and addition to laboratories. This program is aimed that students who completed this program have the experience and information to work in embryology and andrology laboratories contained in Assisted Reproduction Centers. Students who completed this masters program will have gained the right to apply to the revelant learning center to work as an director of embryology and andology laboratories. Candidates are be able to work with stem cells and cell culture in laboratory studies with their information obtained in this program. In addition, this program; related fields (embryology, reproductive biology) is suitable for graduate degree candidates who wish to continue their doctoral program.
