Sabanci University

Programme overview

Sabancı University’s undergraduate model centers on the institution’s distinctive Freedom to Choose system: students enter by selecting a faculty program group rather than a single department and gain structured exposure to disciplines beyond their initial focus. The university emphasizes active student participation in both education and research, campus life resources, and international mobility through Erasmus and global exchange partnerships.

What you'll study

The curriculum is organized so students experience multiple disciplines before finalising a field of specialization. Undergraduate students are involved in education and research activities at all levels and have opportunities to learn about disciplines other than their initial program choices.

Entry requirements

Admission is based on the results of the national university entrance examination, with applicants choosing among faculty-level "program groups" rather than individual departments when applying.

Career prospects

Sabancı supports employability through a Career Office that organises internships, career counselling, and events (seminars, panels and workshops) connecting students with alumni and industry professionals. These services are intended to help students explore sectors, develop job-search skills, and prepare for interviews.

Scholarships & funding angle (general)

Information on tuition, fees and funding options is provided by the university (see its Programs Tuition and Fees resources). Prospective students should consult Sabancı’s official pages for details on scholarships and financial support.
