Beykoz University, embracing the unifying and developmental power of sports, has signed an important collaboration with Teşvikiye Sports Club. The signing ceremony for the collaboration protocol was held on October 17, 2025, with the participation of Beykoz University Rector Prof. Dr. Burak Küntay, Vice Secretary General Göktuğ Özmen, Dean of Students Enes Özmen, and representatives from Teşvikiye Sports Club, Onur Aksu and Nedim Karasu.
Under the signed collaboration, the initiative aims to support the athletic development of Beykoz University students, integrate sports science with practical applications, and transform the expertise of both institutions into mutual benefits.
Beykoz University Rector Prof. Dr. Burak Küntay expressed his happiness for the agreement, stating:
“Among the many collaborations we have undertaken, we are signing one of the most valuable. This agreement is a concrete reflection of Beykoz University’s commitment to sports. Our university has always supported sports and athletes. Through this collaboration with Teşvikiye Sports Club, we aim to contribute to our students’ development, strengthen the scientific foundations of sports, and mutually benefit from the experiences of both institutions. I believe that, with the principles upheld by Teşvikiye Sports Club, this partnership will mark the beginning of a long-lasting journey.”
Onur Aksu from Teşvikiye Sports Club emphasized the importance of the collaboration for both sports and education:
“We want our students to succeed not only as athletes but also as artists, engineers, or professionals in other fields. Therefore, we believe that education is an inseparable part of an athlete’s identity. Our A Team competes in the professional league, and it is crucial for us that our student-athletes continue their education while performing at this level. This collaboration with Beykoz University will greatly contribute to the physical and mental development of young athletes.”
Dean of Students Enes Özmen highlighted the university’s strong position in sports, saying:
“Our university has achieved championships both in Turkey and Europe. Last year, we represented our university in 19 different sports. We have been Turkish champions in 3x3 basketball for two consecutive years and in beach volleyball for three years. We also qualified to represent our country in the Red Bull World Cup. Through this collaboration, we believe that our students will achieve even greater goals not only academically but also in their athletic careers.”
This collaboration between Beykoz University and Teşvikiye Sports Club aims to strengthen the interaction between the university and the sports world, invest in the future of sports, and promote the integration of students into the professional sports ecosystem.
