About the university:

While the question of opening a university in Konya was first brought to the agenda with a bill prepared in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey in 1955, the bill signed by more than half of the deputies, unfortunately, could not pass the National Education Committee. With the Selçuk Education Institute and the Higher Islamic Institute, which were opened under the supervision of the Ministry of National Education in 1962, the first serious step towards establishing a university was taken. In order to promote and develop this first step, the “Association for University Establishment and Sustainability” was established in Konya in 1968, and the Faculty of Architecture, which forms the core of the Faculty of Architecture today, was established as a result of outstanding efforts. Although there is no building, classrooms, staff, and budget, this college, which started operating in a building (near Gazi High School) belonging to the Child Protection Agency in the 1970-1971 academic year, with the efforts of the association to establish and sustain the university, was established on July 5, 1971 and was established In 1418. Under the 9th Article of Law No. 1975, it was awarded the title of Konya Academy of Engineering and Architecture.
