This short article outlines master's thesis research on binational universities, with a focus on the graduate career outcomes, using the case of the Turkish-German University in Istanbul, Turkey. The topic of binational universities is novel and under-studied despite the positive impact binational universities can have on expanding access to an international education at home.
