The Associate of Dialysis program at İstanbul Medipol University is a 2-year, full-time vocational program taught entirely in Turkish, aimed at preparing students for careers as dialysis technicians. The curriculum blends theoretical knowledge with practical competency, covering core health sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, nephrology, and pharmacology in the first year. The second year places emphasis on clinical applications, patient care, dialysis treatment methods, and nutrition for dialysis patients. Practical training is a significant component, with weekly hands-on sessions in affiliated dialysis units and a mandatory 30-day summer internship at a center selected by the student or assigned by the university[1][3][4][5]. Graduates obtain an Associate Degree Diploma and the professional title 'Dialysis Technician,' enabling them to work in dialysis units of government and private hospitals, university hospitals, or specialized clinics. There is a strong demand for qualified dialysis technicians in Turkey due to increasing rates of kidney disease and advancements in medical technology, ensuring promising career prospects for program graduates[2][5].
