Dear Students,

Welcome to your university, standing out with its modern campus life, accredited programs, research-focused education, and industry collaborations.

We work, think, plan, and implement to ensure that you have a wonderful educational experience, and the best kind of preparation for your life after graduation. With the belief that university life is not limited to the courses in your department or program, we design special academic programs for you and update them with the requirements of the current age of artificial intelligence. We believe that seizing the advantage of these unique programs of our university proves invaluable in acquiring competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration.

As part of our President in School program, in effect for the last three academic years, we will be visiting you at your school to hear from your feedback and adopt it as part of our continuous improvement/ development efforts to achieve even more.

Our newcoming students (including our Preparatory School students) will be required to take the course ATU 111 Introduction to University Life, a course designed to ease you into campus life overall and introduce Atılım University to you in depth. Details regarding the course will be shared with you soon.

Please see the links below for preliminary details regarding our programs.

I offer my regards and wish you luck, hoping that you will have a good educational experience here at your university in our thirtieth year in service as one of the best-established foundation universities in Türkiye.
