The fields of art and design, which hold an important place in terms of their relationship with technological creativity, have been carried into a very different dimension with the innovations brought by the digital age. In today's world, where the definite boundaries separating art and technology have disappeared, our Faculty of Fine Arts, which assumes a great responsibility in educating designers who can adapt to this world, offers undergraduate education in the programmes of Graphic Design, Textile and Fashion Design, Drama and Acting, Cartoon and Animation, Gastronomy and Culinary Arts, and Digital Game Design. Within the Institute of Social Sciences, we also have master's programmes in Visual Arts, Graphic Design, and Theatre Directing. In the field of Graphic Design, proficiency in art (doctorate) education is also provided.
Our Faculty, which continuously updates itself within the framework of globalization, digitalization, and the social, economic, and cultural characteristics of the era, provides students with an applied art and design education that fosters creativity and broadens their vision. Equipped with all the technological resources necessary for high-level art and design education, the Faculty of Fine Arts prepares its students for any competitive environment in professional life with its expert academic staff. It ensures that students graduate as well-equipped professionals who are resilient to cultural differences and global competition, not only domestically but also abroad. This is supported by an infrastructure that includes Erasmus, exchange programs, agreements with international universities, and language learning options.
Strengthening events such as congresses, workshops, exhibitions, talks, seminars, and conferences that increase academic and professional knowledge and experience through national and international collaborations with the business world and NGOs, our Faculty has adopted as a principle to educate its students as respectable individuals who are knowledgeable and creative as well as equipped with contemporary values, beneficial to humanity and their country, and continuously renewing themselves.
