OBJECTIVE: Despite the changes in the curriculum of medical faculties in the last 30 years, anatomy education has maintained its importance as a basic discipline. The aim of this study is to evaluate the current situation of anatomy education in Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Faculty of Medicine and determine the problems related to the education-teaching process in the light of students' feedback. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 482 volunteers studying at Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Faculty of Medicine participated in our study in the 2021-2022 academic year. In the study, there were 167 (94.35%) students from Term I, 151 (88.30%) from Term II and 164 (89.13%) students from Term III. 17-question survey was applied to all students on a voluntary basis over Google Forms about anatomy education (6 questions about theoretical education, 2 questions about Internet, 4 questions about exams, and 5 questions about practical education). RESULTS: 96.9% of the students of the faculty of medicine reported that the anatomy course is essential to be a good physician. The rate of the presentations and models have facilitated the understanding of the theoretical part of anatomy education is 88.4% and 97.7%, respectively. 87.82% of the students suggested that the lecturers should perform a discussion of case reports on the last lesson on the lecture board. 78,4% of the students reported a positive opinion about the 3D (three dimensions) interactive anatomy programs that we are planning to receive. 92.1% of the students stated that laboratory courses were beneficial, 89% of them stated that the laboratory should be better organized, and 78.4% of them stated that cadaver dissection is important.
