Reviews

Civil Engineering at Fatih Sultan Mehmet Vakıf University is taught in Turkish, so I did the preparation year first, hard months, worth it. Our concrete and materials labs let us test what the textbook only describes.

Studying Arabic Language Teaching as a Yemeni felt like a natural fit, and the bilingual Turkish-Arabic track opened doors I had not considered. The old campus by the Golden Horn makes Istanbul part of every lecture.

I compared several architecture programs before choosing Fatih Sultan Mehmet Vakıf University, mostly because studios are in English and the restoration faculty is strong. Sketching Ottoman buildings for assignments never really feels like homework.
