The Language Program at Koc University is dedicated to offering  students the opportunity to acquire one or more foreign languages during their studies.

Languages like Arabic, Ottoman Turkish, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Russian, Spanish, Ancient Greek and Latin, Turkish for foreigners and Sign Language are offered and taught by  a successful team of native instructors.

The Foreign Language Program believes in the great benefits of linguistic and cultural diversity and is planning to expand programs in Japanese and Portuguese in  future years.

Students  can choose from among a rich collection of various language courses from levels A1 to B2 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for languages.

Students  are not only given the opportunity to learn the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing but also aspects of the culture like history, politics and literature.

At  the  end of their studies students will have attained both linguistic and intercultural competence.

Students  will be evaluated according to their midterm, homework and final results however our main goal is to help students to become sensitive, critical and active “global citizens”.
