> > CONFERENCE VENUE
> >
> > Istanbul, the country's commercial and cultural center and metropolis with
> > a population over 10 million creates over 20% of the nation's gross output.
> > The former capital of two empires, the city has inherited a rich and unique
> > collection of Byzantine and Ottoman masterpieces of art and architecture,
> > as well as a beautiful natural setting to offer inhabitants and visitors
alike.
> >
> > Robert College, founded in Istanbul by Dr. Cyrus Hamlin and Mr. Christopher
> > Rheinlander Robert in 1863, was the first American institution of higher
> > learning outside the United States. In 1971, after over hundred years of
> > superior service to the nation and to the academic community at large,
> > its Board of Trustees turned over Robert College to the Turkish Government.
> > Thus, Bogazigi University, the official successor to Robert College, was
> > inaugurated on the same campus in 1971.
> >
> > Bogazigi University is situated on a hill on the European side of the
> > Bosphorus after which it is named. It overlooks the Rumeli fortress
> > built in 1452 and the two new suspension bridges connecting the
> > European and the Asian (Anatolian) parts of the city. Because of the
> > University's unique setting it enjoys a peaceful and magnificent view
> > over the Bosphorus, but is within easy reach (a 30-minute drive) of the
> > cultural facilities of the city center. The ancient buildings, renovated
> > within the last few years, and the carefully preserved surrounding
> > woodlands add distinction to this most attractive university campus.
