About Sabancı University

In 1994, the Sabancı Group launched an ambitious initiative to establish a world-class university that would nurture qualified individuals capable of addressing global challenges. In 1995, this vision took shape through an international education-focused conference involving 50 academics from 22 countries, alongside students and industry leaders. The insights gained from studying Turkey’s top educational institutions helped shape what would soon become Sabancı University.

By 1999, Sabancı University officially began admitting students and has since evolved into a globally recognized institution. It is known for its commitment to international standards and forward-thinking education that empowers students to grow in confidence and excel across disciplines such as natural sciences, engineering, management, and humanities.
