Social and Cultural Facilities of the University

Hello friends, my name is Adem Kilic and I am the head of the Directorate of Health, Culture, and Sports at the Social Science University of Ankara. As the head of the department, I would like to inform you about the cultural, sporting, and artistic activities that we undertake with our students. There are eighteen groups in our university. The Social Sciences University of Ankara sports club community, the art society, the Social Sciences of Ankara music community, and the social stage society can be given as examples. As it is implied with the aim of our university, there are a few societies, in which we emphasize a social aspect and I would like to mention about them now. Our students offer a service in the social sciences as a mark of the university with these social activities. Our university is a natural member of the Turkey University Sports Federation. This year our university attended sports events with students from sixteen branches. Among these sports events, they represented our university in volleyball, basketball, archery, fencing, swimming, and similar sports. I would like to say how happy we are about being able to support sixteen sports branches as a newly established university. Meals are prepared here in our dining facilities. We aim to provide a clean, high quality of service to our students by keeping the hygiene, health, and cleaning principles to the forefront. Part-time students work at our university. The fact that they are provided with opportunities to improve themselves and their communication skills in the library, the self-access center, in the IT department, and the Directorate of Health, Culture, and Sports provides both financial supports to their families while improving their social and communication skills as a form of a preliminary study. The university is located in the center of Ankara at a location which is easy to reach from all points by bus and other public transportations. There are six state dormitories and four private dormitories in its environment. I would like to remind you that these dormitories are within walking distance to the university. Apart from that, being a city university in the center of Ulus at the heart of Ankara, in terms of transportation is a distinguishing feature that makes the university different from other universities. Concerning the social facilities, the fact that our university is a city university and surrounding by the historical places. It manages its social facilities within the framework of the agreements and arrangements with the public institutions and organizations around it. Students can benefit from the swimming pools and sports facilities, in accordance with the agreements we have with both public and private institutions. In this context, dancing lessons, swimming lessons, and archery training are available for students. I have no doubt that these will gain diversity in the future. The provision of free food scholarships at our university is for students in need of contribution by the university, like any other social support that we provide. If you would like to benefit from these facilities offered by our university we would like to welcome you to the Social Sciences University of Ankara. My thanks to you all.
