Rectorate

Dear Students,

With over 30 years of educational tradition, our university provides significant contributions not only for its students but also for the future of humanity. Through its expert academic staff, technological infrastructure, social activities, R&D and Technology Centers, industry-integrated curricula, career programs, and various other investments, Istanbul Arel University stands out as a leading institution. Our R&D and Technology Centers attract attention with their innovative research and development activities.

With 37 research centers and laboratories, our university offers extensive opportunities for academic researchers and students while collaborating with the industry. From the associate and undergraduate levels, our students actively participate in R&D processes, take part in projects, and intern within these centers. This allows them to reinforce their theoretical knowledge through practical applications.

Our Cevizlibağ Health Campus, Technology Center, Arel Park Project, Arel Media Office, Arel Village, Arel Sports Facilities, and other investments within the Tepekent Kemal Gözükara Campus provide valuable physical spaces for scientists, students, and professionals in the business world.

Prioritizing quality in education, our university received accreditation from the Higher Education Quality Council of Turkey (YÖKAK) in 2022.

To ensure that our students focus not on potential employment concerns but on production, science, and development projects, we conduct significant collaborations with the business world. Through Arel Professional (ArelPro), we actively engage with thousands of companies from various industries, asking, “What competencies and experiences do you expect from graduates?” By integrating their feedback into our course content, we ensure that our students enter the workforce not as “inexperienced graduates” but as highly qualified professionals who meet industry expectations.

In light of all these advancements, Istanbul Arel University will continue to educate young individuals who will contribute to our country and humanity, following the words of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk: “My spiritual legacy is science and reason.”

Prof. Dr. Ersin GÖSE – Acting Rector
