You are stepping into a university that genuinely adopted the motto "Leading with Science" as its primary objective. As a new university, we welcome new students. Your dynamism and eagerness to learn, together with our determination and accumulation of knowledge, open doors to professional opportunities and science life. Universities have two essential functions: Teaching existing knowledge and reaching out for new facts and new knowledge by questioning the existing ones. To accomplish this double task, universities should establish a robust education combined with innovation, research, and development. This task requires a specific dynamism. It is impossible to envisage a university today, enclosed between four walls, away from its society, having no contact with the outside world. In brief, a university with a perspective is trapped in its narrowness. Altınbaş University prides itself on offering its students this very dynamism and innovativeness, delivering free research and development to the national and international scientific community Altınbaş University is proud to "Lead with Science." Hence we make the necessary investments to be sure to reach the highest standards as a university, and we employ a highly qualified academic and research staff, all graduates from the world's top universities in their fields. Altınbaş University is growing into a modern, dynamic university, in touch with the business and art world, due to tremendous support from Mehmet Altınbaş Education and Culture Foundationı and Altınbaş Holding, which is one of the most powerful economic forces of Turkey. Since its foundation in 2008, our University has begun to admit students in 2011. It now continues to make his mark day by day in our scientific community through eight schools, three graduate schools, two vocational schools, three research centers and 23 undergraduate programs, 19 associate's degree programs, six graduate programs, and two doctorate programs. With its increasing rate of scholarship allocation, our University continues to be a center of attraction for all students who wish to study in Istanbul. Our University puts its signature under internationally qualified research projects with its two doctorate programs by bringing forward the English language, which became the most widely used language globally and offering rigorous academic programs. Our academic staff continues to achieve very successful results in the field of scientific research projects. At Altınbaş University, we are in a period where we are enhancing our investments in education. Last year, one of the most modern Student Guest Houses in Turkey has opened its doors to IKBU students. Our Guest House, which is only a two-minute walk away from our main campus, is equipped to meet our students' needs in accommodation, study, and catering. Another critical investment we made is our Bakırköy Campus, which will open its doors to students in the next academic year. In this new campus, having a surface area of 40000 square meters, some of our schools will continue to provide education, notedly our health sciences-related schools (Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Vocational School of Health Services). On the other hand, our students will be able to continue their education programs both in our industry and trade partners' companies and also at the University, thanks to the CO-OP education program that we have introduced as an example of a modern education system, in order for our students to maintain close relations with industry and gain experience during their studies. Another program that we are proud of and has no precedent in Turkey is Law Dual Degree Program, conducted in cooperation with Köln University. Students included in this program find the opportunity to study in Turkey and Germany, and become entitled to receive a law degree, which is valid in both countries. Altınbaş University is admitting students to its nine schools and 29 programs in the Fall Semester of the 2013-2014 academic year to become one of Turkey's most comprehensive and prestigious educational institutions. The University was established by Mehmet Altinbas Education and Culture Foundation in 2008 and accepted its first students in 2011-2012. With its exceptional academic staff and visionary institutional values, Altınbaş University is dedicated to creating and sharing knowledge to fulfill its mission of adding value to society. Altınbaş University, in line with the international education standards, rapidly reflects the advancements in technology in all facets of the academic life it offers. With its dynamic, innovative, and research-oriented faculty, Altınbaş University aims to educate the brilliant young generation of the new century to become self-confident, open-minded, and technologically capable adults of the global information technology society.
