Civic Involvement Projects (CIP)

The Civic Involvement Projects (CIP 101) course has been a compulsory requirement for all Sabancı University students since 1999. Civic Involvement Projects provide an educational program that aims to promote and implement participatory democracy among individuals. Through this course, students are introduced to the concept of active citizenship and engage in a learning process based on experience rather than theoretical knowledge.
As part of Sabancı University’s core curriculum, Civic Involvement Projects aim to raise students’ awareness of their communities and encourage them to act with a sense of social responsibility, enabling them to make a difference while fulfilling their duties to society.
