English Language Requirement

You must provide evidence of English language proficiency for all Ph.D. programs (in Turkish and English) and master’s programs taught in English.

This evaluation will lead to one of the following outcomes:

• you will study English courses together with graduate program courses.
• You will study intensive English courses first (with no graduate program courses) before you start your graduate program.

Tuition Fees

The tuition fee table shows the different types of fees you may need to pay during your studies. In order to calculate the tuition fee for one semester, multiply each course fee by the number of courses (and/or thesis study) you will register for that semester, and then add Student Services Funds to the amount.

Scholarship Opportunities

Students who will enroll in their respective programs for the first time may apply for scholarship opportunities. (Students who terminate (or dismiss) their registration and re-apply cannot get a scholarship.)

• International students can apply for 100% and 50% scholarships for PhD programs and 50 % scholarships in Master’s programs.
• Turkish Republic citizens can apply for 100% and 50% scholarships for Master’s and PhD programs.
• Students who have registered with special or visiting student status are not eligible to receive this scholarship.

Research Assistantship Opportunities

Graduate students are given a certain number of research helper posts by each faculty each semester. Candidates may be given consideration for either full- or part-time research assistant roles, depending on how many vacancies are open in the departments. A part-time research assistant earns half of the compensation of a full-time research assistant and is exempt from half of the tuition fees, except the student fund, for a semester. A full-time research assistant receives a salary and does not need to pay tuition fees. You should contact the relevant academic department for information on the application and evaluation processes.

Please include your current CV and a letter of intention with your application. Your letter should explain how your skills, knowledge, and experience match the needs of the research assistant post you are applying for.
