Organizational culture is a set of shared meanings and values, which connect members together. The present study aimed at investigating the relationship between organizational culture and professional ethics among the faculty members of North Khorasan University of Medical Sciences, Bojnourd, Iran.

Results: The mean scores of organizational culture and professional ethics subscales were 162.1 ± 20.8 and 63.5 ± 5.2, respectively. The mean score of organizational culture was at enough good level, while that of professional ethics good.
