"As Boğaziçi University, we have achieved the highest ranking since 2019 in the QS World University Rankings, which are among the most prestigious rankings in the world. We have reached the top 35% this year by rising to 514th place worldwide. However, as Boğaziçi University, we do not find this sufficient. As a leading university in Turkey, we should aim for the top 200 or even the top 100. By higher rankings in university rankings, however, I do not mean only that. We will continue our efforts to provide greater benefits to our country and then to the world by showing the best in all areas such as research and development, employment and sustainability."
