The registration period has started for the External Academy * organized by MLSA.
Over the past year, university life has turned into a troubling process for many of us. Pandemic conditions still do not allow physical assembly. In this process, when we realized that the random encounters on campus fed us mentally; More or less, following routine work, we got tired, questioned the knowledge we had acquired, and did not have the opportunity to conduct academic discussions based on these.
As MLSA, we aim to provide a discussion platform for the participants who will come together at the External Academy, where they can express themselves comfortably and have the opportunity to develop themselves through communication with people from different disciplines.
You can fill out this form to register with the External Academy.
