Our Student Association carried out its traditional Ankara trip on April 2–4, offering our students a meaningful historical perspective through visits to the foundations of our nation’s governance.

The program began with visits to the 1st and 2nd Grand National Assembly buildings, followed by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, where students experienced the heart of contemporary politics firsthand. The itinerary also included key cultural sites such as the Ankara Castle district, Ankara Palas, and Ulucanlar Prison Museum.

The most meaningful part of the trip took place at Anıtkabir, where our students paid their respects to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and explored the Atatürk and War of Independence Museum in depth. Strengthening both their historical knowledge and sense of responsibility, ASSOC’26 members completed the trip with a strong sense of unity and motivation for the year ahead.
