Orientation & Peer Counselling Program
Orientation Program
Orientation is an event for newly enrolled students to get to know the university and transition to their academic studies.
After the opening ceremony of the academic year and the first class, our students are given a campus tour.
During the orientation trip planned at the faculty and college level, presentations of academic, administrative units, classrooms, laboratories, library, and social areas are made.
Peer Counselling Program
The peer counselling program helps our students who have registered to our university to adapt to our university life in Istanbul.
Students participating in this program, which is organized voluntarily, are called “consultants” and “counselees”.
Consultants support the students during their adaptation to the university and city. Consultants develop a friendship with the student, and help the student development in their social relations. The counselee who is a new member of the University, is the student who desires to be a part of the university and city.
The students that participate in this program as consultants and counselees will gain friendships, experiences, understanding our differences, exploring our cultural richness, and adding a fruitful life to our university.
