Bachelor of Law
4 YEARS | ON CAMPUS
The Legal Faculty offers a four-year bachelor’s program that focuses on the Turkish legal system. The curricula closely parallel the law programs in Turkey. This program prepares students to understand and apply the law in a holistic way that connects theory and practice. As such, students learn how the legal system operates and the intricacies of national and international law. At the same time, they must understand the underlying ethics, values, principles that shape the legal system. Furthermore, because law is increasingly being practiced across national boundaries, students must take intensive English courses as part of the curricula. They will also take more theoretical courses intended to develop their critical analytical skills and communication skills, which will be necessary for their future work in the legal field. Students who graduate from the Faculty of Law can enter a wide number of professional career pathways. Most immediately, they can work in administrative offices, serve as legal clerks, and notaries. They can train to become lawyers, judges, and prosecutors, as well as work in political and administrative positions within the offices of governors, inspectors, and other bureaucratic positions. Finally, many of our graduates go on to work in the private sector in areas dealing with legal compliance and international trade.
