Established in 2003, our Faculty provides education with an academic staff comprising graduates of some of the world’s and Türkiye’s leading universities. As strong connections with the industry are essential in the field of communication, our faculty is further supported by part-time lecturers who are accomplished professionals recognized for their success in their respective fields. Our Faculty comprises the Departments of Visual Communication Design, Radio, Television and Cinema, Advertising and New Media and Communication. Our curricula and technical facilities are continuously developed and renewed in line with the evolving needs and requirements of the field.
Our educational approach is structured in accordance with the growing integration of different sectors within the communication industry. Through interdisciplinary courses, a broad range of elective courses, and studio and workshop spaces designed for collaborative projects, our students graduate equipped with the skills necessary to work across all areas of the communication industry. For students who wish to go beyond this broad foundation, our Faculty also offers opportunities to develop in-depth expertise in a second field alongside their primary area of specialization.
Starting from their third year, students in the Departments of Radio, Television and Cinema and New Media and Communication can pursue specialized course tracks and earn certificates demonstrating their expertise in a second area. This opportunity enables our students to work across different fields of the communication industry while allowing them to deepen their knowledge in areas that align with their interests and talents and adapt more readily to professional life.

The importance of integrating theoretical and practical education in the field of communication is now widely recognized. At the KHAS Faculty of Communication, all courses incorporate practical components designed to prepare our students for professional life in the best possible way. In recent years, we have particularly increased the emphasis on practice-based courses within areas of specialization, enabling our students to spend much of their time in studios, workshops, and laboratories shared across departments.
In these practice-based environments, students work with faculty members who have extensive industry experience or come directly from professional practice to produce innovative content across a wide range of communication platforms. They develop interface and interaction designs, motion graphics and 3D design models, and mobile applications; produce newspapers and prepare magazines for publication; and work on films and screenplays. Our award-winning Advertising Workshop provides an environment where students can develop innovative and creative projects.
Our Faculty also has the distinction of being the first faculty in Türkiye to anticipate the transformation of the communication field, establish a New Media Department, and graduate the first students in this field. Students of the KHAS Faculty of Communication begin their university journey in an interactive academic environment that nurtures their curiosity for learning and creativity, supported by the quality of its academic and administrative staff and the diversity of opportunities it offers. They graduate with the knowledge, skills, confidence, and capabilities needed to shape their own futures.
