Dear students,
Welcome to the Yıldız Technical University family. We are delighted to have you with us during this important time as you take your first steps at one of Turkey’s most established and respected universities. As you begin your university life, the YTÜ School of Foreign Languages aims to provide you with a high-quality language education that will lay the foundation for your academic journey. The English preparatory program is not merely a language instruction process; it is also a crucial phase during which you adapt to university life, become acquainted with the culture of academic work, and develop an interdisciplinary perspective.
In this regard, our school’s priority is to equip you with the language proficiency needed to compete on a global scale; by supporting your critical thinking, communication, and intercultural interaction skills, we ensure that you begin your undergraduate studies with language proficiency that meets international standards.
Even after you transition to your undergraduate programs following your preparatory education, we at the School of Foreign Languages continue to support your language development through a holistic approach. Our teaching processes—for both foundational English instruction and the required and elective foreign language courses offered at the undergraduate level—are conducted with a curriculum that is up-to-date, dynamic, and tailored to the needs of our students from diverse faculties and disciplines.
With a structure that values student feedback and is open to continuous improvement, we aim to transform language education into a strong and integral part of your university experience. In this regard, we will continue to provide you with a high-quality learning environment by focusing on contemporary teaching methods, digital learning opportunities, and transparent assessment processes.
In line with Yıldız Technical University’s long-standing institutional values, we are committed to supporting all aspects of your language education journey together with our team.
As you take this first step on your academic journey, I wish you all a productive and successful learning experience.
With respect and best regards,
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Murat İNCE
Director
