The kick-off workshop in Istanbul marks the official launch of the Studienbrücke programme in Turkey. The expansion of the preparatory study programme will specifically strengthen and further develop networking between German and Turkish student mobility.

The Studienbrücke initiative in Turkey was launched with an intensive kick-off workshop in Istanbul. The workshop provided partner organisations with an opportunity for exchange and networking. Particular attention was paid to developing a programme track suitable for the Turkish education system. The first cohort of students is scheduled to start the programme in September 2026. Participation in the UA Ruhr - Mintakademie will already be possible for interested parties from Turkey in July 2026.

The UA Ruhr liaison office is responsible for implementing the Studienbrücke programme for the universities of the University Alliance Ruhr and supports the further expansion of the programme together with other partners.
