Abstract

It was aimed to evaluate all theses conducted in public health departments between 1970 and 2022 in Türkiye. All public health theses (n=2623) indexed in Türkiye's Council of Higher Education Thesis Center were included. Each thesis was multi-tagged with subtopics. Trends in the field over five decades were examined. The most frequently studied subtopics are occupational safety (n=386, 10.63%), non-communicable diseases (n=373, 10.28%), and health promotion (n=339, 9.34%). the least ones are travel health (n=3, 0.08%), public health ethics (n=6, 0.17%), and health law (n=9, 0.25%). This study proposes an interactive scientific subtopic map based on conducted theses in the public health field in Türkiye. There is a need for a balanced distribution of our scientific energy so that critical areas in public health are not neglected.
