Founded in 1999, Istanbul Okan University is one of the universities that is concerned with the practical skills of students. With its slogan, “the University Closest to Business Life” this is what we see in several matters carried out by the university:
1- The university has affiliations with many national and international companies.
2- The institute sends students to these companies for their training to gain extensive practical experience in their specialization.
3- The university meets the training needs of these companies and conducts joint research.
4- The O’COOP program provides students with distinct opportunities to view the reality of work, in addition to holding training for graduates, all of which would increase the student’s chances of finding a suitable job for him, and that would be required by other companies.
For students of medicine, dentistry, or students of the College of Health Sciences, at the university, there are two hospitals, one for dentistry and the other for general medicine. Students of these colleges at Istanbul Okan University can refine their practical skills to the fullest.
