Yaşanan büyük felaketin ardından ülke genelinde alınan kararlar doğrultusunda üniversite eğitiminin bir kısmı hibrit eğitim sistemine aktarılmıştır. Hibrit eğitimin fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon öğrencileri üzerindeki etkilerinin öğrencilerin bakış açısıyla değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmaya Fizyoterapi ve Rehabilitasyon Bölümü'nden toplam 156 öğrenci dahil edildi. Sorular Google Formlar kullanılarak cevaplandı ve cevapların yüzdeleri hesaplandı. Sonuçlar Bu süreçte araştırmaya katılan öğrencilerin %14'ü yabancı dil kursuna katılmış, %22'si staj için gözlem yapmış, %36'sı mesleki gelişim kurslarına katılmış, %60'ı lisansüstü programları araştırmış, %62'si çevrimiçi lisans derslerine katılmış, %85'i yüz yüze lisans derslerine gönüllü olarak katılmış, %80'i uzaktan eğitim süreci ile ilgili endişe duymuştur, 49'u fizyoterapi alanını belirlemeye çalışmakta, %67'si fizyoterapistlik mesleği hakkında olumlu fikir değişikliğine sahip olmakta, %57'si akademisyenleri ile iletişime geçebilmekte, %20'si online sempozyum ve kongreye katılmakta, %44'ü düzenli egzersiz yapmakta ve %63'ü hibrit eğitimde online derslerin bir bölümünde kas-iskelet ağrısı yaşamaktadır.
