About the University:
Born in the heart of Istanbul, the crossroads of civilizations and eras, Haliç University began its educational journey on November 23, 1998, under the initiative of the Foundation for Children with Leukemia (Bizim Lösemili Çocuklar Vakfı), in accordance with the Higher Education Law No. 2547. As one of Turkey’s first foundation universities, Haliç University has become not only a higher education institution but also a symbol of human-centered education, science, and social responsibility. While defining its name and future, the Golden Horn (Haliç)-a historic center of science, art, and culture in Istanbul-has been instrumental. Indeed, the Golden Horn is not just a district or neighborhood of Istanbul; it is a symbol known culturally and globally, which for centuries shaped the city’s historical heritage and influence in the arts and sciences.
Initially seen as a bold concept, this vision has come to define the identity and global aspirations of today’s Haliç University. With these principles in mind, Haliç University began to grow rapidly, experiencing continual development through six fundamental periods.
Available Faculties:
Located along the Golden Horn in the historic Sütlüce neighborhood, this was the original campus. It features modern academic and social facilities including classrooms, labs, cultural spaces, and a 5‑story library.

Situated centrally in the Fatih district, Vatan Campus supports around 1,250 students with 33 modern classrooms, laboratories, libraries, a dining hall, indoor/outdoor gyms, and a conference hall fully integrated into Istanbul’s metro, tram, and bus network.
