Bursa Uludağ University's 7-Day Live Broadcast Marathon for 2026 University Candidates

Digital Promotion Project: Designing Your Future at Uludağ University Bursa Uludağ University (BUÜ), one of the leading educational institutions in Turkey, has launched a new project titled "Design Your Future at Bursa Uludağ University" for the 2026 university entrance exam (YKS) candidates [1]. This program, designed as a 7-day live broadcast marathon, will begin on July 17, 2026, with an opening speech by Professor Doctor Ferudun Yılmaz, the University Rector [2]. The primary goal of this initiative is to provide accurate, first-hand information to prospective students and prevent the spread of misinformation in digital spaces during the critical department selection period.

Program Details and Senior Management Participation This digital marathon, broadcast via the university's official YouTube channel, will include specialized sessions featuring deans, vocational school directors, heads of administrative departments, and Erasmus student exchange coordinators [3]. Throughout these seven days, candidates will have the opportunity to ask their questions directly to the relevant officials. According to the announced schedule, the first session will be held at 14:00 on July 17 with the Rector, followed by a 16:00 session where student affairs, social services, and sports department officials will explain their services [1][3].

Direct Answers to Candidate Questions The topics discussed in these live broadcasts are extensive, covering all aspects of student life in Bursa. From registration processes and academic infrastructure to scholarship opportunities, dormitory status, social facilities, and international exchange programs, all will be reviewed in these sessions [2]. This event provides an exceptional opportunity, especially for candidates living in other cities who cannot physically attend university promotion days, to become familiar with the campus environment and department details [2].

Rector Yılmaz on the Importance of Informed Choices Rector Ferudun Yılmaz emphasized in a statement that choosing a university is one of the most vital decisions in the lives of young people, and Uludağ University is committed to being a reliable guide for them on this path [3]. He noted that their goal is to prevent student confusion amidst the massive volume of unofficial information and to provide a clear picture of the university's academic potential. Given that the final YKS results will be announced on July 22, this information marathon is provided exactly during the golden window of department selection so that students can make decisions for their future with a broader perspective [1][3].
