Student stories

What students say

“The Kadir Has campus is a restored tobacco factory on the Golden Horn, and working on Industrial Design projects inside that building changes how you think about form. Our studio critiques run late but nobody wants to leave.”

Sara HaddadIndustrial Design · Jordan

“Studying Preservation of Cultural Heritage in Istanbul means my case studies are a tram ride away. Last term we documented actual Byzantine masonry for a conservation report instead of only reading about it in slides.”
