Get to know Koç University!
Koç University has six research centres: College of Engineering, College of Sciences, College of Social Sciences and Humanities, College of Administrative Sciences and Economics, Law School, School of Nursing and School of Medicine. Each of them works closely with both national and international stakeholders (such as the European Commission, universities, companies), running numerous complex projects.
One of KU's most popular initiatives is “Summer at Koç University” – a programme that allows students from partner universities to attend summer courses organised at the institution. These courses take place onsite and online and equip their participants, among other things, with knowledge in the areas of leadership, sustainability and social innovation.
