Whether you are a college student at a Turkish university or another university internationally, or an individual seeking professional development or personal enrichment, you’ll find many ways to get ahead and learn something new over the summer.

Some universities in Turkey also offer classes during the annual summer break between June and August. Summer school programs usually run for six to eight weeks and are open to all international students. Students are often able to receive credits for attended courses and transfer them to their faculties back  home. Choose among courses offered in many Turkish Summer School Programs in the fields of Management, Marketing, Cultural Studies, History, Humanities, Literature, Social and Political Science, International Studies, European Studies, Philosophy, Manufacturing Systems, Economics, Finance, Mathematics, Operation Research, Project Management, and more..

Universities with summer programs offer students the best of both academic and cultural worlds in several ways. They have the chance to experience the culture of Turkey, a country where Europe and Asia literally meet. In addition, summer schools give students the opportunity to study abroad and earn credits without missing anything at their own universities.

All summer school students can enjoy all kinds of social and cultural activities organized by the universities. Furthermore, they have complete access to library facilities using their temporary university student ID card. These ID cards are issued by the Student Affairs Office or Summer School Office upon registration. 

Besides summer schools organized by Turkish universities, some foreign universities also offer their own summer programs or schools in Turkey in collaboration with Turkish partner universities.

Enjoy your summer at a Turkish university, explore İstanbul, and earn credits.
