With science, technology, and social structures advancing day by day, the world needs more qualified individuals who possess the knowledge and skills required to pursue a career anywhere in the world. Aware of this pressing issue, in 1994 the Sabancı Group decided to establish a "world university" led by the Sabancı Foundation.
Sabanci University provides a multidisciplinary education across its three faculties. At SU students have the chance to choose their majors after their first or second academic year. This allows students to decide what program to study at university with greater understanding about higher education and about their own academic and career interests.
The interdisciplinary design of the academic programs offered by The Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences (FENS), The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) and Sabanci Business School (SBS) prepares students for the diverse challenges of modernity and technology.
Sabancı University’s 2018-2023 Strategic Plan defines “to resolve selected global and regional issues and to raise individuals towards this goal” as the main objective. The main research related strategies to achieve this objective are:

For us, dormitories are an essential part of a proper university education and a happy life at university, where friendships are made and where tolerance, sharing, helping others –the art of living together in short– is learned. Our housing facilities are designed as homes away from home, where students can gather around for a friendly conversation or study in solitude, all within a family atmosphere.
