Established in 1994, Sabancı University is a young foundation university and one of the leading higher education institutions in Turkey. Located in Istanbul, the university offers English-medium instruction across all its programs.

Sabancı University is unique with its multidisciplinary teaching model—it is the only university in Turkey where students do not declare their majors in the first year. Instead, they follow a core undergraduate curriculum, which includes courses from diverse disciplines such as Natural Sciences, Arts, and Humanities, before specialising in their chosen field.
