About Us

Today, Türkiye is in the process of integrating into the European Union. It can only be possible by expanding overseas and seizing the contemporary developments by means of a new and modern educational campaign. The education system adopted by Haliç University towards this target aims to develop the analytical and synthesis capabilities of the students. This is the only way to provide a solution to most of the interdisciplinary and complicated problems of our age. We believe that finding the right solutions and taking reasonable decisions under unstable conditions can only be achieved by means of education programs prepared according to the changing conditions of science, technology, and communication and information management.
