About Faculty
The education in Faculty of Law began in the academic year at 1997-1998 academic year. Although there is a great demand in Turkey for law schools, in order to promote excellence in a contemporary and a statisfactory education and attract students of high quality, enrollment is limited. Some successfull students receive scholarships through the Student Placement Exam year by year The language of instruction is Turkish; however, to operate in the field of international area, students must learn English. Therefore, if their English is not satisfactory upon admission, they will attend the Preparatory School of English Language. The legal curriculum includes additional English language courses so that students may expand their professional vocabulary in four academic years. As modern education in law, besides knowledge in law, economics, management, accounting and international law, other electives will also be available in these areas. The Faculty has a “moot court” where students will debate law topics and exercise their theoric knowledge within a scenario.
As in all educational programs, the quality of the teaching staff is of primary importance. Our faculty includes lecturers widely recognized in the law branch.
Under these circumtances, our faculty aims to give a higher law education with the knowledge of at least one foreign language, broad culture, good computer skills and the ability of using economic and law knowledge when necessary.
