The history of our faculty dates
back to the ‘Merchant Navy Boarding
School’ (Leyli Tüccar Kaptan Mektebi),
which was established in 5 December
1884 at Heybeliada-Istanbul as a
part of the Ottoman-Turkish Naval
Academy with the aim of
strengthening civilian
navigation/seamanship in the
country. During the Republican era,
it’s named as the ‘High Navigation
School’ and continued its activities
in the following decades. Finally,
in 1992, it is re-established as a
‘Maritime Faculty’ and tied to the
Istanbul Technical University.
