The 80th Anniversary of the Faculty of Medicine
The Faculty of Medicine celebrates its 80th anniversary in 2023. Since 1943, the Faculty has been an active health and well-being promoter and a regional influencer. Throughout the year, the Faculty will organise versatile events, to which we warmly welcome everyone.
In the spring, the anniversary can be seen on the streets of Turku as the procession of doctors and honorary doctorates, when we celebrate the Faculty's own Ceremonial Conferment of Doctoral Degrees. On Thursday, April 20, we will be participating in the Turku Philharmonic Orchestra's Diandra & Bond concert, in connection with which we will present our activities.
In the fall, we will have a celebration week, during which we will focus on the future prospects of medical and health science research and education and think about how we can meet the challenges ahead. There will be interesting speakers on current topics.
The program of the anniversary will be announced in more detail on this page.
