Hello, I am Matthew, a botany major here at UF. I studied abroad as part of the UF in Istanbul program, which is an urban studies program in Türkiye’s largest city. In this program, we walked around different neighborhoods and learned about how the city came to be, with influences from Islamic cities and Ottoman ideals of a modern city. If you have any questions regarding the program feel free to reach out!
