Background: One of the biggest losses with regard to the education costs is the brain drain seen among resident physicians, who are a part of the qualified labor force. Brain drain has at the same time a rather adverse effect on the health systems. Difficulties in the education and working conditions of resident physicians may lead to brain drain. Aim: The present study aimed to compare the intent of brain drain in resident physicians by a range of variables (age, gender, marital status, dependents, socio-economic status, professional experience, and job satisfaction) and to investigate the reasons for their intention to migrate. Study Design: Descriptive study. Method: A total of 161 resident physicians working in university and state hospitals in Ankara city center were included in the study. The research data were collected using the questionnaire about the views of resident physicians on brain drain and the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale. Results: More than half of the resident physicians participating in the study desired to attend to medical specialty programs abroad (83/161, 51,6%) and to work abroad (89/161, 55,3%). Germany, United States of America, England, and Canada were the most frequently preferred countries for education and employment opportunities. There was a statistically significant relationship between specialty education abroad and gender (p=0.016) and socio-economic status (p=0.016). While one of the main reasons for attending a medical specialty program abroad is that the education conditions abroad are better, the main reason for the desire to work abroad is the better working and living conditions. Conclusion: More than half of resident physicians in Turkey, want to attend a medical specialty program abroad and work abroad for better education, employment, and living conditions. This poses a great risk for educational costs.
Eğitim gibi sosyal sistemler ne kadar mükemmel bir şekilde kurgulanmış olursa olsun uygulamada sistemin işleyişi üzerinde olumlu ya da olumsuz etki yapabilecek birçok belirsiz değişken söz konusudur. Burada sistemi, sistemin amacını, işleyişini, onu oluşturan bileşenleri bildiği kadar olası değişkenleri de fark edip, olumlu yönde yönlendirebilecek yönetsel süreçler önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada 5 Şubat 2021 tarihli Milli Eğitim Bakanlığına Bağlı Kurumlarına Yönetici Seçme ve Görevlendirme Yönetmeliği (MEB EKYGS) ve bu yönetmeliğe dair yönetici görüşlerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması desenine göre yapılan araştırmada amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda herhangi bir devlet okulunda müdür veya müdür yardımcısı olarak görev yapan ve 2021 MEB EKYGS Yönetmeliği hakkında bilgisi olan 15 okul yönetici ile görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, farklı okullarda görev yapan okul yöneticileri yönetici yetiştirme süreçlerine ilişkin olarak, yöneticilerin lisans veya lisansüstü eğitim programları ile
The aim of this study is to compare the living conditions and professional future concerns of university students in the 2010-2011 and 2019-2020 academic years. For the purposes of the present study as designed upon a qualitative approach, the study group consisted of 15 students, who participated in the research in 2010-2011 academic year and 29 students, who participated in 2019-2020. Research data were collected using a questionnaire developed by the researcher. Data were analyzed by descriptive analysis method. It was seen in the study that the majority of the students preferred the student homes for accommodation in both academic years and the major sources of income were family support, scholarship, and education credits, yet, students' income was not sufficient to cover their expenses in both academic years. It was observed that in both educational years, the major expense items were accommodation and transportation, where the least was spent on such items as social, cultural and sports activities, and that the order of priority of educational expenses declined during the 2019-2020 academic year. It was concluded that the rate of students attending to private preparatory institutions (dershane) or courses in their off-university time increased during the 2019-2020 academic year. In terms of university opportunities, there was a significant decrease in students' use of the library and participation in interviews, conferences, panel-like activities in 2019-2020, whereas there was a significant increase in the rate of utilization of such facilities as sports hall, computer laboratory, and club/association activities. With regard to the students' professional future concerns, it was concluded that a majority of the students, who participated in the research in both academic years, wanted to work in the public sector after graduation and that a great majority of the participants were concerned about finding a job after graduation.
