Smoke-Free Campus Policy

Beykoz University regards the creation of a healthy, safe, and respectful learning and working environment for its academic and administrative staff, students, and visitors as a fundamental principle.

Prepared in accordance with Law No. 4207 on the “Prevention and Control of the Harms of Tobacco Products”, which is in effect in Türkiye, as well as the related regulations, this policy aligns with the University’s commitment to social awareness and environmental sustainability.

The use of all tobacco products, electronic cigarettes, and heated tobacco products is prohibited in all indoor spaces of the University, including classrooms, laboratories, offices, dining halls, the library, the conference and student centres, and sports facilities, as well as in outdoor areas of the campus. Tobacco products may only be used in designated and clearly marked smoking areas.

To raise awareness across campus, the University regularly provides educational seminars, informational posters, digital announcements, and social media content.

Through its smoke-free campus initiative, the University seeks to reduce the risk of passive smoking, improve on-campus air quality, prevent environmental pollution, and promote a culture of healthy living.
