Student stories

What students say

“Arts and Culture Management makes sense in a city like Istanbul, half my assignments happen inside actual galleries and festival offices. Last term my class helped coordinate volunteers for a documentary festival on the Asian side.”
Dana NasserArts and Culture Management · Palestine
“The Information and Communication Technology courses at Istanbul Aydin University are taught fully in English, but free Turkish classes helped me handle daily life. By second year I was debugging in one language and bargaining in another.”
