Study in Turkey in English: Programs Without Turkish

You do not always need Turkish. Discover English-taught bachelor’s, master’s and PhD programs and what language proof you need.

One of the biggest myths about studying in Turkey is that you must speak Turkish. In reality, hundreds of programs are taught fully in English.

What is available in English

  • Bachelor’s degrees in engineering, business, medicine, IT and more
  • Master’s and PhD programs across most fields
  • Both private and many state universities

Language proof you may need

For English-taught programs you usually need an English certificate (such as IELTS or TOEFL), or you can take the university’s own English exam. Some universities offer a one-year English preparatory year if your level is not yet sufficient.

Do you still need any Turkish?

Not for your studies — but learning basic Turkish makes daily life easier and is a great bonus. We can also arrange TÖMER courses if you want to learn.
