Student stories

What students say

“Tourism and hotel management here includes a paid internship term, and the department placed me in a five-star hotel near the Bosphorus. I graduated with reception and events experience already on paper.”

“The information security labs at Doğuş run capture-the-flag exercises on isolated servers, so we practice real attacks legally. Living on the Asian side of Istanbul is also cheaper than my friends warned me.”
