İstinye University Healthcare Management Doctorate Program was launched in the 2021–2022 academic year with the aim of educating visionary scientists capable of analyzing healthcare systems at both national and global levels, developing sustainable policies, and providing strategic leadership to healthcare institutions. Our program offers an advanced academic pathway that integrates theoretical depth with practical competence to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of healthcare services.
