I hope that in the future, we will continue to host similar international organizations. The organization of the Workshop in GAU and generally in TRNC is a very important success and I also take the pride of this. In the Workshop which will last 2 days, expert scientists will make presentations regarding their own fields.

It is obvious that education in TRNC is a locomotive in the development. In addition, now, TRNC is in the position of an education island. We, as GAU Global Science Family, attach great important to quality of education and perform our investments in this direction; therefore, we often organize similar international organizations within our constitution.”

Notices and studies which will be presented in the Workshop have a great importance in terms of content. For 2 days, we will be able to meet students and academicians from other countries.”

GAU is really successful with its academicians, students and campus. I think that the subjects, which will be shared during two days, will be very helpful for the students.”
