General Brochure Yeditepe University.Pdf 1 Yeditepe University 2 Message from our Founder and Honorary President The leader and originator of the ISTEK family that has respect, love and devotion in its roots is Atatürk. His children are walking in his footsteps, therefore they show characteristics which he expects and has determined for the Turkish nation. Atatürk means wisdom. Of the most important revolutions that reflect his productivity and character which is beyond generations is his revolution in the area of education. Education is a serious and divine business. Just as the great leader Atatürk said, it is essential to raise generations who are intellectually, spiritually and culturally free. We have founded the ISTEK foundation and Yeditepe University for this reason. A good future can be shaped by a youth who makes the right choices by knowing themselves. One of the most critical decisions in this process is choosing the right profession and university. The world is changing. New ideas emerge every day. A new idea has to be created all the time. If this does not happen, it means that humanity is not moving forward. After agricultural and 3 industrial revolutions, our world is experiencing a new age called “the information age”. The concept of globalism has lifted borders, merged all markets and has lifted local competition to universal levels. In a world where there is too much and widespread information, there are two main principles for individuals, institutions and nations to stay alive: to obtain information and to share this information efficiently by using information technologies. For communication to take place efficiently, it has become obligatory to know at least a foreign language very well, preferably English. The service sector has gradually increased its share in the gross national product in developed countries. Therefore, besides traditional education, new business areas and opportunities emerge from sectors such as customs, logistics, tourism, civil aviation and real estate. At our university, we aim to educate our students with a modern approach, and want them to acquire all the skills necessary to be successful in business life in an ever-changing world. Together with English and other languages, the latest computer applications, over 750 cooperation agreements with European, American and Asian universities, research and education laboratories equipped with the latest technologies, apart from learning students are acquiring all necessary knowledge and skills from professionals from the academic and business world. In the last 30 years at ISTEK foundation and Yeditepe University, we have raised at least 100 thousand self-confident kids who embrace the world. Our graduates are and will continue to be sought after professionals not only in Turkey but also in the whole world. They are representing our country in the best way in all areas. Yeditepe is a very peaceful university. Our campus conditions do not exist at any university in Turkey. This is the post-modern version of a Seljuk social complex. It is a campus that has a philosophy and an identity and it represents our own origins. The most efficient way to reach development and prosperity is to follow the enlightening principles of the Great Leader Atatürk’s principles and science. İSTEK Foundation and Yeditepe University Founder and Honorary President Bedrettin DALAN Yeditepe University 4 5 Yeditepe University THE UNIVERSITY AT GLOBAL ACADEMIC STANDARDS Yeditepe University Overview Yeditepe University was officially founded in 1996 by the Istanbul Education and Culture Foundation (ISTEK) as a foundation university governed by the Higher Education Law as a legal entity with financial and administrative autonomy.

Environmental issues were taken into consideration in all academic and administrative decisions as well as activities at Yeditepe University. In 2017, a “Sustainability” network was initiated by Yeditepe University in order to exchange information and collaborate with other universities. Firstly, by becoming a member of the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings (IWGM) system, the university became part of the “2017 GreenMetric International Assessment”. Secondly, we became a member of the “International Sustainable Campus Network” (ISCN) system and related studies were initiated.

  • Information Literacy in Legal Education: the Case of Istanbul Bilgi University
    Information Literacy in Legal Education: The Case of Istanbul Bilgi University Sami Çukadar Istanbul Bilgi University, Istanbul, Turkey. [email protected] Kerem Kahvecioğlu Istanbul Bilgi University, Istanbul, Turkey. [email protected] Abstract: The main purpose of the law is to seek justice by solving both individual and social conflicts in society and thereby achieve peace, equality and freedom. In order to achieve this goal, the rules of law should be understood in order to be implemented and interpreted correctly. Due to the rapid changes and increase in technology and information, the concept of information literacy is becoming more crucial in every field including legal education. The aim of this paper is to examine briefly the legal information skills and legal information literacy implementations worldwide and in Turkey, and to give information about the appropriate information literacy standards for undergraduate legal education. Information literacy practices at Istanbul Bilgi University Law Faculty are specifically mentioned. Keywords: Legal information literacy, law librarianship, legal research, Istanbul Bilgi University Introduction The Internet, and developments in information technologies, is one of the greatest changes in the information arena since the invention of the printing press. Change in information media has taken place in parallel to these developments with the amount and types of information resources increasing like an avalanche. In our time, when globalization is unavoidable, knowing where and how to locate and access needed information is more important than trying to obtain all the information related to our subject. Efforts to share all kinds of information, often from unknown sources and of doubtful integrity, have resulted in difficulty in locating accurate information on the Internet in our digital world.

My current research in theoretical statistical mechanics focuses on complex spin systems with quenched disorder and frustrated interactions. I use the renormalization-group theory as a main mathematical tool in my research. In metaphysics (as ontology), my research currently focuses on the problem of border and the principle of individuation. | ORCID ID: 0000-0002-9624-3124 EDUCATION PHD, COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCES — KADIR HAS UNIVERSITY, ISTANBUL (PRESENT) Advisor: Prof. A.
