Nursing education in Turkey is given in different diploma degrees as a bachelor, master’s degree, and doctoral education. One of these is
Internal Medicine Nursing Doctorate education. The aim of this study was to highlight the importance of doctoral training for the nursing
profession and to present numbers of current students, new registry, and graduates from internal medicine nursing doctoral education
according to years. Data from Internal Medicine Nursing PhD program from 1999-2000 academic year to 2016-2017 were examined. In
this data, the number of new enrollments, the number of students, and the number of graduates are evaluated. The data up to 2013 were
taken from Measurement, Selection, and Placement Center, and the data for the following years were received from the Council of Higher
Education. The number of new registries and graduate students before and after 2010 was examined as two different periods. Accordingly, gerekit
was determined that there were 74 newly enrolled students and 31 graduate students in total, from 1999-2000 academic year to 2009-
2010 academic year. In the following period between 2010-2018, although the data of 2 years are missing, the number of new registry and
graduated students was 116 and 62, respectively. Although there is an increase in the number of students doing a doctorate in the field of
Internal Medicine Nursing every year, it was seen that the number of institutions providing education on the basis of the Department of
Internal Medicine Nursing and the number of doctoral students are still not at the desired level.
