After I successfully completed the Yeditepe University Nursing Department and Sociology Minor Program in 2015, I have started my graduate education at the Yeditepe University Institute of Health Sciences Nursing Master Program. I have been working as a nurse at Yeditepe University Hospital for three years. I have a particular interest in quality and education in nursing, and I am happy to have the opportunity to work as a service training nurse for the last one and a half years and experience the field of my interest. Also, the information that the Sociology Minor program contributed to me during my undergraduate education was beneficial in shaping my master's thesis. In the future, I aim to contribute more to my profession with the research and practices I will do in the field of Nursing by using the light of the Sociology field.

Büşra Selma Demirhan

The most important factor for me to choose Yeditepe University was that it was educating in English. I had some hesitations when I started the department. But I realized that I made the right choice thanks to my professors who are specialized in their fields, experienced and transferred their experiences to us. The fact that our professors contacted us one-on-one helped me warm up to the school. The activities, projects and social responsibility projects we organized with our department instructors enabled me to develop myself in both professional and social fields. After graduation, I start working at Yeditepe University Specialized Hospital, which keeps the spirit of our university alive. Having a team understanding and seeing familiar faces here quickly helped me get used to it. At the same time, not limiting myself to undergraduate education and starting to graduate school makes me more active, conscious and knowledgeable. Let us not forget that we must develop ourselves and protect our profession.
