Anadolu University program expansion

Overview

In early July 2026, Anadolu University announced a revamp of its open faculty as part of a broader effort to add new university programmes in Turkey. By early August, the university detailed the launch of 15 new associate‑ and bachelor‑level programmes focused on artificial intelligence, data science, software development, digital media and game design. The offerings include Front‑End and Back‑End Software Development, Big Data Analytics, Game Development, Digital Game Design, and an English‑taught Data Science and Analytics track, along with two open‑learning courses in AI‑Supported Coding and Data Visualisation & Information Design. The university set aside 990 seats, expecting around 3,000 students, with roughly one‑third enrolling in the new tracks, aiming to align higher education with the digital transformation of the labour market.
