Gazi University (Turkish: Gazi Üniversitesi) is a public university located primarily in Ankara, Turkey.
It was established in 1926 by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk as Gazi Teacher Training Institute. In 1982, it was reorganized by merging with the Bolu Academy of Engineering and Architecture, Ankara Academy of Economics and Commercial Sciences, the Ankara College of Technical Careers, the Ankara Girls' College of Technical Careers, and the Ankara State Academy of Engineering and Architecture to form a large metropolitan university as part of the act which created the Board of Higher Education. Prior to 1982 when the Board of Higher Education Law came into effect, institutions of higher education in Turkey were organized under different structures as universities, academies, institutes, and schools. In 1992, the faculties and vocational schools in Bolu became Abant Izzet Baysal University.
