Dear Students,

established in Istanbul in 2009, the European Vocational School has been teaching as Kocaeli Health and Technology University since 2020.

Our university, next to the European Vocational School; has been built on the educational background of me and the European Education Foundation, which has been going on since 1984. With the advantage of this experience, it shows very important improvements in a short time.

What changes the world is the change and renewal of people’s desires and expectations. Education should be in a dynamism that will respond to these expectations and rapid change. For this purpose, we must understand the flexibility and innovation of postmodern approaches in education and fulfill the requirements of the digital age. We should be able to dry today’s laundry in today’s, even tomorrow’s sun, not yesterday’s. For this purpose, we must understand the flexibility and innovation of postmodern approaches in education and fulfill the requirements of the digital age.

Universities should have four important functions: to produce knowledge, to transfer knowledge, to preserve knowledge and to spread Knowledge. For us, these four functions are our four separate goals. Our first goal is to employ academic staff who are equipped with information and who will produce new information in the field of health and technologies, and to support their studies. In addition to the student’s learning, creating laboratories and physical infrastructure that provide opportunities for research and production is another sine qua non. Our ultimate goal is to encourage those who are ambitious and have goals to teach and produce with employment, to be able to provide services to the Turkish Nation and humanity.

Kocaeli is the second largest city in the region. It is a production center. It offers a wide range of opportunities to support the social and cultural intelligence accumulation of students. We also intend to make significant contributions to Kocaeli’s higher education and technological production with the dynamism of being the first foundation university.

In our opinion, historical and ancient universities may not always be good universities. It will be faster to achieve success with dynamic universities that have goals and an accumulation of experience to achieve this.

We are waiting to walk together to beautiful destinations.
