Gazi University

Gazi University, located in Ankara, Turkey's capital, was founded in 1926 as a teacher training college. It wasn't until 1982 that it merged with the Bolu Academy of Engineering and Architecture, Ankara Academy of Economics and Commercial Sciences, Ankara College of Technical Careers, Ankara Girls' College of Technical Careers, and Ankara State Academy of Engineering and Architecture to form the large university that it is today.

Gazi University today has 21 faculties, 4 schools, 52 research centers, and 7 graduate institutes. Gazi University has campuses in Ankara, including Ankara; Beşevler, Emek, Maltepe, Gölbaşı, Çubuk, Ostim and Polatlı. Because all campuses are located within the city, it is a popular destination for students. There is lots of housing, as well as shopping, sports contests, theatrical shows, and festivals.

There is a Technopark on the Gölbaşı campus, which was founded in 2007 and is noted for offering high-quality and cost-effective services to Turkish technological enterprises. Gazi University's library contains 150,000 volumes, 62,000 bound magazines, and 10,000 theses, which are mostly available in Turkish, English, and German.

The Beşevler campus has extensive sporting facilities, including the Olympic pool, which is available to students. Furthermore, every year, Gazi University hosts a four-day free summer festival for students, featuring a variety of popular singers, ensembles, and activities.

Notable graduates include Bülent Bezdüd, a Grammy Award-winning artist, Mehmet Zafer Çağlayan, a Trade and Industry Minister, and Özdemir İnce, a poet, writer, and member of the European Poetry Academy.
