“For Aviation Management, Istanbul Bilgi University brings in guest lecturers who actually work at the airport authority. My favorite course project analyzed real turnaround data from a ground-handling company, nothing about it felt theoretical.”

“The Architecture studios at Istanbul Bilgi University stay open until midnight, and critiques are honest without being cruel. After Baghdad, having a design tutor who sits with my drawings for a full hour still feels like a gift.”
