A Strategic Academic Meeting for the Turkic World

Considered as one of the leading academic events in the field of Turkology, UTAS V is an important organisation closely followed by scholars not only from Turkey but also from all over the Turkic world. The symposium, which covers a wide range of academic fields such as Turkish language, literature, history and culture, will bring together academics from Turkey and abroad who are experts in their fields and will prepare the ground for scientific discussions and international academic collaborations.

The symposium, which will be held for the fifth time this year, aims to strengthen the common academic heritage of the Turkic world and develop new scientific perspectives. The event, where current research will be shared, will serve as a platform where important issues related to Turkish culture and civilisation will be discussed.

Detailed information about the symposium and application conditions can be followed through the official website and announcements of our university.
