Dumlupinar University comprises two main campuses, Evliya Çelebi Campus and Germiyan Campus, located in the center of Kütahya, and ten smaller campuses located in ten different districts. The Central Campus is located on a large area of over 7500 decares. The main gate of this campus was built in Ottoman-Seljukian style, the basic style of all the buildings on campus, welcoming everyone. This enormous gate made of stone has got two large towers in the middle, and there are other towers gradually getting smaller on both sides, among which there are chambered entrances. A large ring road that separates those areas still under construction surrounds the existing buildings. No vehicles are allowed to enter inside the faculty blocks. Thus the areas for vehicles and the pedestrians are separated to a large extend.
Opposite the Stone Gate, the Rectorate Building is located.

We will not emphasize student-centered learning but quality in education. We will purify the schedule from unnecessary details and make it appropriate for occupational needs and concerns. We will try to replace the traditional understanding of education by giving information and transferring it to students with transforming knowledge to products and production and be one of the new generation universities. We want to be a university with targets and try to reach them, endeavoring and getting tired while doing all these things.
