Rector's Message

Çağ University was founded in 1997 by the Bayboğan Education Foundation, which has over 37 years of rich, dynamic, modern, and comprehensive experience in education, spanning from kindergarten to primary school, high school, and university. The foundation provides resources in various fields such as scientific, educational, cultural, and sports, and continuously strives for advancements that align with the current era. Our university aims to cultivate highly qualified young minds who are equipped with universal values, possess a global perspective, prioritize freedom of thought and creativity, and are proficient in English and a second foreign language. It is a boutique university with a technological infrastructure, dedicated to producing exceptional graduates who align with the principles of Atatürk’s philosophy of thought and contribute on both national and international platforms.

Çağ University, with its students, faculty members, and all its staff, forms a cohesive whole. Driven by a passion for providing high-quality education, it adheres to a modern educational approach that befits its name. The university is committed to reaching this goal without deviation from the advanced Western university standards, never compromising on these principles, and is willing to make any necessary sacrifices to achieve this mission.

 

Çağ University is not just a university that provides students with methods for accessing and utilizing knowledge; it is also a school of life that prepares you for living. In this context, education aims to teach not only professional awareness and skills but also what it can contribute to individuals, with these aspects being conveyed in detail through extracurricular activities. In line with its mission, as the only foundation university established outside of Ankara and Istanbul, it offers top-level educational opportunities to Turkey's growing young and dynamic population. With its internationally recognized academic staff and collaborations with prestigious universities in the United States and Europe, the university provides high-quality education both nationally and internationally.

In ancient times, in a region that holds the distinction of being the first city in Anatolia to establish a university, Çağ University continues the tradition of being the first university. By combining the scientific approach with the natural and historical riches of the Çukurova region, along with its culture, art, and unique commercial and industrial activities, Çağ University will broaden your horizons and open the doors to the world.

Dear young people, come, witness Çağ, become part of Çağ, and catch up with Çağ. I wish you all the best of success.
