Acting (Turkish)

About the Programme

This ARUCAD department aims to train actors who are not only capable of expressing themselves creatively within various mediums from theater and cinema to advertising and music videos, but also who are analytically approaching the interpretation of text, considering the socio-cultural context of their performance.

The program of study offers an ideal balance of theory and practice, and the interdisciplinary approach creates a favorable environment for the collaboration of Acting students with students of Sound Art and Design, as well as Film Design and Directing. At the end of each semester, students can present the result of their work to the public.
