Sakarya University of Applied Sciences
Sakarya University of Applied Sciences (SUBU) is a university with an international focus. It considers internationalization as an essential instrument for increasing the quality of research and teaching and communicating political and cultural vision. It enables both its students and staff to acquire global responsibility, social understanding, and an open and tolerant attitude towards life. The aim within the internationalization strategy it embodies is to raise its international profile in research and teaching and to increase the international visibility of its activities in the fields of research and teaching. All members of SUBU live with the knowledge that universities of our century are a part of a global network of postsecondary science and education, which also has political, economic, social, and cultural connections with the international community. Intercultural intellectual exchange is the source of quality, vibrancy, and prosperity for scientific research and teaching as well as for the administrative service facilities.
Sakarya University of Applied Sciences is a university with an Graduate Education Institute, 6 faculties, 12 vocational schools, and a school of foreign languages, yet SUBU has been institutionalizing its internationalization policies ever since its very first participation in the Erasmus+ Programme in 2018-2019. Its priorities during the first years have been on its own development for future generations. For this reason, the initiative Erasmus without paper and focus on participation in the EU-funded programs have been directed. These focused on development cooperation, which was partly intertwined with the institution’s denominational roots: with universities in EU countries and, at the same time, with universities in partner countries of the EU, non-EU countries, and universities in the USA. Incentives policies of the European Commission and the Turkish Government greatly boosted cooperation at the European level, focusing on student and staff mobility and the internationalization of curricula. This development will continue with the emphasis shifting to the quality of the partnering institutions.
SUBU has its own 3+1 and 7+1 Applied Education Model. In the 3+1 Applied Education Model, vocational schools, whose main purpose is to train qualified manpower for certain professions; to our upcoming generations, who are the hope for our future, SUBU’s vocational education has an important place in preparing students for the work life by equipping them with knowledge, skills, behavior, and the habit of working together. In vocational school programs, which aim to train responsible, productive, and competent personnel who have received quality vocational education, 4-semester-long education is carried out theoretically and practically.
