Kadir Has University (KHU) was founded in 1997 in Istanbul. The university, with its five faculties of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Economics and Administrative Sciences, Communication, Law and Fine Arts, as well as its several vocational schools, is dedicated to becoming a leader in educational and cultural fields in Turkey, as well as establishing itself as an international center for research and scientific development. Behind ancient Byzantine walls stands the oldest part of Istanbul. These ramparts distinguish and define Cibali, the neighborhood where Kadir Has University's main campus is situated. It is only a few meters away from the Haliç, the harbor inlet known to English speakers as "the Golden Horn," since Ottoman times. Cable takes its name from the time of Istanbul's conquest when, according to common belief, a soldier from Bursa named Cebe Ali Bey entered the city by breaking through the rampart doors. Since that time, this entryway into the city has been called Ali Bey, and the neighborhood, Cibali. In the present neighborhood of Unkapani, located nearby was the Zeugma. This port opened into the city's economic center during the Ottoman era and continued to be used until the 19th century. Activity around the Zeugma brought liveliness to the surrounding area. However, Cibali also benefited from this hustle and bustle: Ottoman warehouses and caulkers along the Haliç shore of Cibali gave witness to the flourishing businesses in that part of the area. In earlier times, Cibali's harbor called the Puteae, or Porto del Pozzo, was lined with warehouses bursting with goods destined for Istanbul's consumers. Through the Cibali gates, the passageways were instrumental in getting these goods from the port and into the city.- Kadir Has University (KHU) was founded in 1997 in Istanbul.
