About The Program
The Physiotherapy Associate Degree Program trains physiotherapy technicians. A physiotherapy technician is a health technician who has graduated from a vocational school's physiotherapy program and assists in physical therapy practices under the supervision of a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist or physiotherapist. The goal of the physiotherapy program is to train allied health personnel equipped with contemporary knowledge and skills, developed research and problem-solving skills, cultural knowledge and communication skills, a commitment to teamwork, the ability to use technological tools and equipment in the field of physiotherapy, a commitment to human health and ethical values, and who have acquired sufficient professional knowledge and skills within their respective responsibilities.

Physical therapy should be implemented in situations that cause movement disorders in individuals, including illness and aging, pain, and functional impairments. Physiotherapy-specific assessment methods and treatment approaches should be planned accurately and implemented to improve the health and quality of life of individuals. Physical therapy is a constantly evolving sector that renews itself with technological advancements. The increasing positive and/or negative impact of modern life on human health has led to a growing need for qualified personnel in this field.

With the ever-increasing need for physical therapy and rehabilitation services in our country and globally, the need for physiotherapy technicians with the knowledge and skills to assist physiotherapists in the implementation of treatment has become a critical necessity. With this perspective, associate degree programs in physiotherapy technicians are increasingly available both globally and in our country.

The program will integrate innovations and contemporary requirements throughout the educational process.
