Student stories

What students say

I picked Bilkent University for Chemistry because of the research labs, and I was not disappointed, I joined a professor's polymer group in my second year. Ankara winters are cold, but the campus dorms are five minutes from my lab.

Archaeology here means real fieldwork, my department sent us to an excavation in central Anatolia after first year. The comprehensive scholarship covered my tuition completely, which is honestly the only way my family could have afforded studying abroad.
