This university is growing into a modern, dynamic university, in touch with business and art world, due to tremendous support from Mehmet Altınbaş Education and Culture Foundation and Altınbaş Holding, which is one of the most powerful economic forces of Turkey.

Turkey is a country where different cultures were blended together, through the humanity’s thousands years of adventure. Situated at the crossroads of two continents, Istanbul is one of the world’s major metropolises, which has been the capital of three empires.

Through our cultural wealth, historical background, social dynamism and values of civilization, we are one of the exceptional countries able to embrace the true universality, which leads us to take responsibility both locally and globally, to generate solutions and open new horizons. The essence of Altınbaş University’s founding philosophy is based upon processing this great potential diligently and being useful to humanity.
