General Description
History |
Department of Biomechanics was established at 2003 as a multidisciplinary department of Institute of Health Science by approval of The Council of Higher Education. Our academic personel are from engineering (mechanical, elektrics and electronics, mechatronics, material and metalurgical,chemistry engineering) and clinical (orthopadics) departments. Bioengineering PhD program in colloboration with Izmir Institute of Technology has been started education at 2007. The language of program is English. |
