Faculty of Law

Hello, I am Associate Professor Recep Makas. I came to Yalova University in 2010 and continue my duties as the Head of The Department of Private Law here. The students will have an important job of providing the necessary intellect for the rule of law. First of all, legal academicians play a major role in the theoretical education of law. Again, our students, who we have trained as law practitioners have become judges, prosecutors and lawyers, and therefore take part in the application of the law. On the other hand, law schools are also extremely important in the formation of positive law. There's a background to making laws. Therefore, academics have the task of conducting good legal arrangements. For this reason, it can be said that legal academics are also of great importance in the formation of positive law. Our academic staff consists of expert, competent and very well-trained faculty members from the field. Many of them graduated from the law schools of our leading universities and completed their master's and doctoral studies in the leading law schools. A significant part of our staff has successfully completed their master's and doctoral studies abroad. Only theoretical law education is not enough for us. Applied courses are also offered in addition to theoretical education in almost all our compulsory courses. In other words, our students learn to practice. In this way, our students prepare for the real work environment. In addition, by taking our students to our courthouses, they follow the cases, ensuring that they learn from the experience of judges and prosecutors. Our faculty students are subject to a compulsory law internship after graduation, especially if they are going to practice law. In addition, as we have stated, we help them by taking them to courtrooms. We try to do this by cooperating with the courts by implementing periodic programs from time to time. The Erasmus Program offered by our university and faculty to our students is a very important advantage. Erasmus Program provides our students with the opportunity to study at the world's leading universities, develop their foreign language skills and get to know the world. Therefore, we specifically advise our students to participate in such activities and programs. First of all, students who will choose the Faculty of Law should be students who love to read books and have reasoning skills. We recommend that they actively attend the courses after coming to the faculty. Again, in addition to theoretical training, they should not neglect practicing. Again, an important recommendation is that our students must have a goal before coming here. If they have a plan, they can study accordingly. We recommend students who are taking the university exams to choose our faculty. We are a university and faculty with very good advantages and benefits. Our academic staff is very young, dynamic and talented. Our administrative staff is always there to help the students. Therefore, we recommend that they come to our faculty and choose us.
