General Information

The European-Turkish foundation for Education and Scientific Research (TAVAK) was founded in 2008. Its goal is, to enforce economic, social and cultural relationships, as well as academic exchange between Turkey and Europe.

Mission and Objectives

A main part of this work is the implementation of a TAVAK-University, a german- and english speaking foundation-university, which will close a gap in the Scientific landscape of Turkey. Through an connection with partner-Universities in Zurich, Vienna, and Maastricht, TAVAK was able to build its interests widely over europe. Additionally, TAVAK is working with other european-turkish related issues. You can find an excerpt of this work on our Website.
