Ankara University

Ankara University is a university that has identified and integrated the history and mission of the Republic with its students. As the establishment of the Turkey Republic is far beyond changing a mere regime, it is a great social transformation system based on modern science, contemporary democratic values and institutions; the opening of Ankara University also means the concretization of a special mission as well as the known university objectives. Ankara University is a university whose foundation was laid by the great Ataturk himself, in order to establish the foundations of Ataturk's principles and reforms, to spread these principles and reforms throughout the country, to root them and to act as an indomitable advocate of these values, which are the expressions of modernity, science and enlightenment. The first and striking actions of the Young Republic in higher education was to open the Law College, which was established in 1925 to train lawyers who will put into practice the new legal order of the secular and democratic Republic, to open the Higher Agricultural Institute, which started education in 1933, to serve Turkish farmers, to open the Faculty of Language and History-Geography, which was opened in 1935 to research the rich Anatolian culture and to establish Turkey’s language and culture bridge with the World and to open the College of Political Science, which has been training high-level public administrators under the name Mektebi Mülkiye since 1859 and with the special orders and interests of Ataturk, who moved to Ankara in 1936. To these, it is necessary to add the Faculty of Medicine and Science, whose preparations were initiated by Atatürk, but whose establishment delayed until the beginning of the 1940s due to World War II. The development chronology of our university, which was officially established in 1946 with the Faculty of Law, Language and History-Geography, Science and Medicine, each of which has important duties in the development of the Republic of Turkey, is as follows:

-In 1948, the Agriculture and Veterinary Faculties of the Higher Agricultural Institute were incorporated into our university.
