Overview

Marmara University Faculty of Medicine is a public institution located in Istanbul, Turkey. Established in 1972, the faculty provides a comprehensive medical education delivered in English. The MBBS program spans a duration of 6 years and is supported by its own teaching hospital, ensuring that students have direct access to clinical practice and practical training within the university ecosystem.

Fees & Cost

For Indian students, the financial commitment involves an annual tuition fee of 9,650 USD (approximately Rs 8.2 lakh per year). Additionally, hostel accommodation is available at an annual cost of 2,000 USD. When considering the entire duration of the course, the total program cost is estimated at 78,000 USD. These costs make it a structured option for those looking at public medical education in Turkey.

Recognition & FMGE

For Indian graduates, passing the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) is mandatory to practice medicine in India. Marmara University Faculty of Medicine is NMC approved and listed with the WHO/WDOMS.

Regarding performance, the university has a 100% FMGE pass rate, as both candidates who appeared for the exam passed. While this is a positive indicator, it is important for students to note that the sample size is very small (2 candidates). Therefore, consistent academic discipline and dedicated preparation for the licensing exam remain essential for all students studying abroad.

Who Should Consider Marmara University Faculty of Medicine

This institution is suitable for aspirants who prefer a public university setting in a major city like Istanbul. With a limited intake of 120 MBBS seats, it offers a more contained learning environment. Students seeking an English-medium program that is recognised by the NMC and WHO should find this faculty a viable choice. It is particularly well-suited for those who value the integration of a teaching hospital within their medical school to bridge the gap between theory and clinical application.
