Ottoman Empire

Considered as the world's second institution of higher learning specifically dedicated to engineering education, Istanbul Technical University (ITU) has a long and distinguished history which began in 1773. ITU was founded by Sultan Mustafa III as the "Imperial Naval Engineers' School" (Ottoman Turkish: Mühendishane-i Bahr-i Hümayun) (Turkish: Devlet Donanma Mühendishanesi), and it was originally dedicated to the training of ship builders and cartographers. In 1795 the scope of the school was broadened to train technical military staff for the modernization of the Ottoman army. In 1845 the engineering function of the school was further widened with the addition of a program devoted to the training of architects. The scope and name of the school were extended and changed again in 1883 and in 1909 the school became a public engineering school which was aimed at training civil engineers who could provide the infrastructure for the rapidly developing country.

A. It's nice to know that you've got the travel bug for Rome. Have you already booked a flight? Is it confirmed on the dates you have mentioned? Are you on a budget? There are a lot of good hostels in Roma. It's just a matter of setting your budget and how much you are willing to spend for a room and bed that you'll only be using for a few hours of sleep a day..cuz you'll be spending most of your time experiencing the Roma life. Why don't you check out the website: hostelworld.com You can check out different housing facilities fit for your budget. Bon voyage! Enjoy your trip!
