Abstract :
In this study, Nikolaki Mavroğlu s letter 8 May 1946 about the veterinary education from Ottoman to Turkish Republic was investigated. This yearbook type letter which covers chronological events by an output control way is our material in the study. Another character of the letter is its being a booklet that summaries the veterinary medicine history. Findings were evaluated by document analysis method. The findings in the letter regarding civilian veterinary medicine education such as foundation of schools, locations, training curricula, duration of education, academicians, teaching staff and students mobility largely coincides with the information of the other sources. It is seen that the original format of veterinary education is maintaining today but developed and updated. The letter which reflects the educational stages from Ottoman to Turkish Republic indicates that taking notes on events of the educational and occupational life and carrying out multidisciplinary scientific projects on education history are necessary to improve corporate culture in veterinary medicine. This is the first result to draw a conclusion from this historic letter by a bacteriology expert in veterinary medicine. However, one medicine, one health perception is weakened. Due to the insufficient perception of training veterinary surgeons mission, faculty of veterinary medicine is associated with the disciplines such as agriculture, forestry and fisheries. Therefore, the name of the faculty should necessarily be updated as Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. This will positively influence the EAEVE accreditation process. Scientific recording of events and observations will provide significant contribution for educational culture, academic time management and sustainable academic development.
