The Faculty of Political Science of the University of Ankara (Turkish: Ankara Üniversitesi Siyasal Bilgiler Fakültesi, more simply known as "SBF") is the oldest institution of administrative sciences in Turkey. It is the successor of the "Mekteb-i Mülkiye" (Ottoman Turkish: مَكْتَبِ مُلْكِيَه), also known simply as "Mülkiye," which was originally established in Istanbul on February 12, 1859, during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz. In 1936, the institution was relocated to Ankara and later incorporated into Ankara University on April 3, 1950, under its current name. The faculty offers higher education in Social Science, Public Finance, Economics, Public Administration, Labor Economics, Business Administration, and International Relations. It is regarded as one of the most influential academic institutions in shaping Turkey's political and administrative landscape. Source: Wikipedia (en)
