Özet:

The prerequisit for the development of societies in every field are based on the educational system they have. On the other hand, higher education is the last important stage of education. For this reason, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk gave importance to education and training both during the National Struggle and the following period. This process continued even after his death. In addition to the universities in Istanbul and Ankara, the opening of universities in various regions of Anatolia was a continuation of this process. The Democrat Party government especially dealt with this issue and established new universities in Trabzon, Izmir, Ankara and Erzurum. Accordingly, a commission was established upon the invitation of the Minister of National Education. After its meetings, this commission presented an advisory report to the government on the location, conditions, and type of universities planned to open. In this study, at first the history of higher education in Turkey is discussed. This report, which contributed to higher education and was not used in any studies, was examined in detail.
