Social Sciences University of Ankara (Ankara Sosyal Bilimler Üniversitesi - ASBÜ; website) was established in 2013. The university is composed of 5 Faculties (Social Sciences and Humanities, Political Sciences, Foreign Languages, Religious Sciences, and Law) and 5 Research Institutes (Social Sciences, East and Africa, Turkish World, Western World, and Islamic Studies).

The flag of ASBÜ (photo, photo) is white with the university's emblem in the middle.
The emblem ( detailed explanation) is derived from the historical building housing ASBÜ, originally designed in 1925 by architect Yahya Ahmet Bey as the office of the Prime Minister.
The arch is taken from the first floor of the central corps of the building.
The Tree of Life creates a vertical symbolism of ever-growing, rising life. It symbolizes the universe living in continuous development and change in a broad sense. With its roots descending to the depth of the earth, the underground, the lower branches, and the skyline of the sky combine with the ascendant paradise. The tree provides communication between earth and heaven.
