Message from the Director

Dear Students,

BAU Conservatory, the new institution of Turkey, has been designed with the aim of making a breakthrough in the conservatory education and innovative and dynamic approach. BAU Conservatory was established with an interdisciplinary and global perspective in order to make innovative projects and original artistic works for the needs of the academy and sector in the field of music and performing arts. While creating our curriculum, we wanted to strengthen students' versatile, flexible and employment-oriented qualities, taking into account the 21st century educational skills and the changes in the globalizing arts industry. Therefore, we have blended traditional conservatory education modules with technology, pedagogy, digital arts and social sciences modules.

BAU Conservatory, which is designed as o one-year English preparatory program and 30% English mandatory courses, has a mission of raising artists who can speak languages fluently. In order to integrate multicultural artistic experience of Turkey with the world, it is continued to be made agreements with universities in Russia, USA, the UK and EU Countries. In addition, our students will have opportunity to do internship and to have work opportunities within Bahcesehir Ugur Educational Institutions (BUEK). Within the scope of Bahçeşehir University Co-Op sectoral collaborations, entrepreneurship opportunities in both music and performing arts will be provided.

We look forward to meeting our students who want to add value to themselves, gain new and dynamic perspectives, and receive a contemporary conservatory education.

If THE life is a theatre scene, then we are the most important actors on this stage. We are waiting for the young artist candidates who are ready to professional life with music, dance and theatre to the Conservatory of BAU, the world university in the heart of Istanbul.

Dr.Erman Türkili
