Dear Students,

Welcome to T.C. Maltepe University,

Maltepe University, established in 1997 and among the first foundation universities in Türkiye, is the latest link in the Marmara Education Institutions and continues to make significant contributions to Turkish Higher Education with its 29 years of experience, guided by the motto "Free in Thought, Contemporary in Education, Universal in Science".

Our University, which focuses on offering undergraduate and postgraduate studies in the fields of Social Sciences, Natural Sciences and Health Sciences with both theory and practice, aims to educate our students as well-equipped individuals at the national and international level, highlighting their research, innovation and entrepreneurial aspects.

Maltepe University, which has one of the most beautiful campus universities in Türkiye, has been designed as Marmara Education Village to meet all your needs for you, our students, to think freely and bring your ideas to life with its programs, laboratories and social facilities. Serving the purpose of training future scientists, managers, artists, and entrepreneurs who will offer solutions to the problems facing today's world, our University updates its programs at every level and strives to provide you, our students, with an education and training ecosystem that meets the requirements of the age. Based on this idea, in addition to our students' regular programs, an Artificial Intelligence Certificate Program and an academic program compatible with the Council of Higher Education's Micro-Competencies Framework will be implemented at our University starting from the 2026-2027 academic year.
