The Education Bridge Between Turkey and the United States.

Launched on September 2, 2014 in New York City, United States of America, the Turkish American Academic Council was established to contribute to the education, training and academic development of the Turkish American community and to effectively guide human resources in this field. The Council's primary goals include strengthening academic cooperation between Turkey and the United States and encouraging the sharing of knowledge, experience and resources in this process.

The event, which is planned to take place between 6-12 May 2024 and will be hosted by our Council, will be realized in New York with the support of the Consulate General of the Republic of Turkey in New York. This event is the first major event organized by our Council and is therefore of great importance for us. The promotion of Turkey's academic and educational potential on an international platform will be in line with our principled paradigms and will be a source of national pride. The event is a critical step in deepening the academic dialogue between Turkey and the United States, promoting joint research and educational projects, and establishing lasting collaborations between the academic communities of both countries. The event will also provide a unique opportunity to showcase the educational and academic achievements of the Turkish-American community on the global stage and will lay a solid foundation for future collaborations.
