Bahçeşehir University

İstanbul - Türkiye

Overview

The slogan “at the heart of Istanbul” fits really well with Bahçeşehir University (BAU). In Beşiktaş, near the  Bosphorus where the main campus is located, there are  almost full day activities starting from earlier in the day and it is possible to see an event in almost every corner of the university. 

 

When you enter to university, the first thing you will see is the  large number of international students. There are over 1000 foreign students from USA to China and from France to South Korea. When you asked them why you preferred BAU, the answer you will get is always the same: Its central location and international power. The location is obvious and in order to understand international activities, a small tour in our campus or in our website will be enough for you. 

 

Students here engage with peers and instructors from around the world, study abroad at BAU’S overseas campuses and in student exchange programs, and complete internships with global and local businesses.

 

Learning here consists of both classroom study and practical training with partners in local and international industry.  Students learn the theoretical foundations of their field and also gain applied experience in the real world.

 

BAU provides:

  • Nine undergraduate faculties offering thirty majors
  • A student-faculty ratio of approximately 10:1
  • Campuses in Istanbul, the United States, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, and Azerbaijan
  • Students from 70 countries around the world
  • A streamlined application for international students, with fee discounts and scholarship opportunities.
  • Exchange programs with more than 160 international partners in North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East
  • Co-op internship partnerships with more than 700 companies in Turkey and around the world

 

To get to BAU is really easy. There are ferries which provide free transportation to the students and professors between Beşiktaş and Galata campuses which are located at the heart of İstanbul. Mainly new media studies of the communication faculty are done in Galata Campus. There are many studios in Galata from digital media to tablet publishing, from digital game studio to news room where students learn the pillars of news making.
