Experience in Middle East Technical University, Turkey by zeynep

Generally, what is Middle East Technical University like?

It is a huge campus that you can find almost everything.

What are the facilities like?

In terms of facilities, it is upto the person if someone wants something, maybe s/he will need to search for it, but they will find what they are looking for.

What are the tutors like?

In Turkey, we do not pay money to the public schools, so if you are not architecture or industrial design student, you almost do not need to pay anything. In these departments, you will only pay for your products that related to the class.

Are the lessons easy in Middle East Technical University?

Nope, definitely not; but when you come to the end of semester, you will say that I am happy to take these courses like this because you will have a so different perspective and abilities at the end of the semester.

Does the University organise activities? If so, what are they like?

Yeap, they are arranging activities and the activities are changing according to the season, but they are not so much. You can find especially different kinds of activities that are done by erasmus office.

Do you think there is a good quality of teaching?

Absolutely. METU is one of the best universities of the world. In the last research, it was replaced as between 50 and 60 over 100
