Kadir Has Univesity

The establishment of our university was initiated by the Kadir Has Foundation (HASVAK) under the leadership of the late Kadir Has in 1992. Our official establishment was carried out with the law numbered 4263 dated 28.05.1997. The construction of the Selimpaşa Campus began in 1998, and the restoration of the historical Tekel Cibali Cigarette Factory on the Golden Horn, which forms an important part of the Central Campus, began in 1999. The University, which took the Bahçelievler Campus into use in the 2000-2001 period, expanded its activities to all of the Cibali, Selimpaşa, and Bahçelievler campuses as of the 2001-2002 academic year. At the end of 2007, the modern D Block was built to expand the Cibali Campus. The Sports Hall and related facilities were built in 2008 in cooperation with the Fatih Municipality. The name of the Cibali Campus was changed to Kadir Has Campus on March 28, 2007.
