one of the fastest-growing service sectors. For this reason, healthcare has become an increasingly important part of our economy. As in the rest of the world, the demand for healthcare services in Türkiye continues to grow day by day. This increasing demand contributes to the development of the healthcare sector and creates a greater need for qualified healthcare professionals in both public and private healthcare institutions.

Tarsus University Vocational School of Health Services aims to contribute to our country by educating well-qualified, skilled, and professionally competent young people. Our Vocational School currently offers the Health Institutions Management Program under the Department of Management and Organization and the Child Development Program under the Department of Child Care and Youth Services.
