Boğaziçi University (Turkish: Boğaziçi Üniversitesi) is a major research university in Istanbul, Turkey. Its main campus is located on the European side of the Bosphorus strait. It has four faculties and two schools offering undergraduate degrees, and six institutes offering graduate degrees. Traditionally, the language of instruction is English. Despite the fact that there is no official statement, the university is also, and alternatively, referred to as the "Bosphorus University".[5][6]
Founded in 1863, as Robert College, it is the first American higher education institution founded outside the United States. Though under entirely Turkish administration today, the university still maintains strong ties to the American educational system.
Boğaziçi University consistently ranks highest in Turkey, having the greatest number of applicants via Turkish university entrance examinations which makes it the most selective state university in Turkey.[7] The well-known programs are electrical and electronics engineering,[8] computer engineering,[9] and industrial engineering.[10] Only the top 800 of the approximately 1.8 million participants in the annual Turkish university entrance examination (TYT-AYT) are admitted to register for these subjects at the University.[7] To be admitted into other degree programs, one usually has to be in the top 1% of the university entrance exam as well. This allows Boğaziçi University to attract many of the highest scoring students;[11] as well as having the most preferred applied science, education, engineering, and social science programs in Turkey.[12][13]
History[]
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Boun_iibf.jpg/220px-Boun_iibf.jpg)
In 1863, Robert College was founded in Bebek by Christopher Robert, a wealthy American philanthropist, and Cyrus Hamlin, a Congregational missionary devoted to education.[14][15] Six years after its foundation, with the permission (Ottoman Turkish: irade) of the Ottoman Sultan Abdulaziz, the first campus (the current-day Boğaziçi South Campus) was built in Bebek at the ridge of the Rumelian Castle.[14]
According to a college catalog that was compiled for the 1878–1879 academic year, "the object of the College is to give to its students, without distinction of race or religion, a thorough educational equal in all respects to that obtained at a first-class American college and based upon the same general principles."[16]
After Cyrus Hamlin, the college was administrated by George Washburn (1877–1903) and (1903–1932).[14] Though founded at the time of the Ottoman Empire as an institution of higher learning serving mainly the Christian minorities of the Empire and foreigners living in Constantinople, and yet retaining a smaller Muslim as well as Jewish student body since its earlier days, the school adopted a strictly secular educational model in 1923 in accordance with the republican principles and policies of Turkey.[17]
Before 1971, Robert College, had junior high school, high school, and university sections under the names Robert Academy, Robert College and Robert College Yüksek. In 1971, the Bebek campus and academic staff of Robert College were turned over to the Republic of Turkey to be transformed into a public university named Boğaziçi University, the renamed continuation of Robert College's university section (i.e. Robert College Yüksek). Robert College moved into the American College for Girls' Arnavutköy campus, and despite retaining the title of 'College', has continued to function only as a "high school."[18] In the fall of 1971, Boğaziçi University started its new academic year with former faculty and students of Robert College Yüksek as well as a new cohort of freshman students.[14]

In early 2021, the university received a lot of media attention, after the Turkish government appointed a new rector, disrespecting the tradition of the university of a democratic election of rectors.[19][20][21] Students protested against the curtailment of academic freedom.[22][23] More than 150 students were detained.[24]

Campus[]
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5d/Bosphorus_University.jpg/300px-Bosphorus_University.jpg)
Boğaziçi University operates on six campuses in Istanbul. Four of these campuses (South Campus, North Campus, Hisar Campus, and Uçaksavar Campus) are close to each other and located on a hill in the affluent district of Bebek on the European side of Istanbul, overlooking the Bosphorus (hence the name). The South Campus is considered to be the most popular Boğaziçi University Campus among students and visitors alike. It houses various historic buildings of Robert College, including Hamlin, Washburn, Albert Long and Anderson Halls as well as the Kennedy Lodge, named after John F. Kennedy, and currently serving as a welcoming facility for visiting professors and staff.[25]
The Kandilli Campus is right across from the shore, located on the Asian side of Istanbul (in Çengelköy) and hosts the historic Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute (KOERI).[26]
The newest campus is in Kilyos on the Black Sea coast, and is home to a private beach. Boğaziçi's Kilyos Campus is the first sustainable energy, self-sufficient university campus in the world, meeting all of its electricity demands from its own wind power plant.[27]

Dormitories[]

The University has ten dormitories on its different campuses. Boğaziçi's 1st Men's and Women's Dorms are located on the historic South Campus and are housed in some of the oldest buildings within the campus. By accommodating at these two historic buildings, students get the chance of participating in the active social and historical life of Boğaziçi University.
There are also 4 dormitories on Boğaziçi's North Campus. 1st and 2nd North Campus Dormitories were opened to service in 1985; and while the former serves for female students, the latter is only for male students. These two dorms have similar 1980s modernist architectural designs. The 3rd North Campus Dorm was opened in 2010 and accepting only female students. The 4th Dorm of the North Campus has been in service since 2011, and mainly accepts graduate students.
The Kilyos Campus Dormitories are located on Boğaziçi's Kilyos Campus, which is approximately one-hour drive away from Boğaziçi South and North campuses. 1st Kilyos Dorm serves only female students while the male students accommodate at the 2nd Kilyos Dorm. All of the power demands of the Kilyos dorms are supplied by the electricity that is produced on campus.
Apart from the dormitories mentioned above, Superdorm and Kandilli Dorms also provide accommodation to Boğaziçi University students. Put into service in the 1998–99 academic year, Superdorm enables the students to socialize and experience the dorm life with higher service quality, and accordingly for higher fees. The Kandilli Dorm, which was opened in 2017 on the Kandilli Campus right across the Bosphorus, serves only female students. The waste water collected from the bathrooms at the Kandilli Dorm is reused in the toilet reservoirs after a treatment process.[28]
