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.
