Student stories

What students say

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.

Studying Advertising in Istanbul means my classroom examples are on billboards the same week we discuss them. The campus by the Golden Horn is small enough that lecturers recognize you at the café between classes.
