Unprecedented Support from Renowned Bursa Businessman for Top Students

Elevating Educational Support in Bursa As academic competition in Turkey reaches its peak, the city of Bursa is witnessing a new initiative from one of its leading economic figures. Mümin Cambaz, a philanthropic businessman previously known for establishing the Science High School (Fen Lisesi) bearing his name in Bursa, has now captured the attention of media and families with a "giant support package" [1]. This move, publicized on July 9, 2026, reflects a new private sector approach to supporting the country's human capital and scientific elite.

Details of the Support Package: From Smart Gadgets to University Scholarships According to reports published by the media outlet "Bursada Bugün," this support package includes highly valuable cash and non-cash rewards aimed at attracting the nation's top talents to this educational center. As announced by Mr. Cambaz, all students who rank within the top 0.5 percent in the High School Entrance Exam (LGS) and choose this high school for their studies will receive a tablet and the latest smartphone model as a gift [1][2].

However, the most attractive part of this plan concerns the long-term future of the students. Mümin Cambaz has promised that graduates of this high school who rank below 500 in the Numerical (Sayısal) group of the National University Entrance Exam (YKS) will benefit from a full university scholarship throughout their entire higher education [1]. This action goes beyond temporary support and guarantees the educational security of the elite until the completion of their advanced degrees.

Investing in Modern Scientific Infrastructure In addition to individual incentives, the businessman places a special emphasis on the educational environment. The Mümin Cambaz Science High School provides a space where students can practically test their theoretical knowledge using modern laboratories in biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science [1]. Speaking to the media, Cambaz stated that his goal is not just to give prizes, but to create an ecosystem where Bursa's elite can become the scientists of the future.

This Bursa-based philanthropist had previously prioritized awarding iPads to students who achieved a perfect score of 500 in the LGS exam, but now, by expanding the scope of support, he has raised the "ceiling of dreams" for the city's youth [2]. Such targeted support from the private sector could serve as a model for other businesspeople across Turkey and the region to take steps toward scientific development.
