Afyon Kocatepe University (Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi - AKÜ) was founded in Afyonkarahisar in 1992. AKÜ originates in the establishment in 1974 of Afyonkarahisar Finance and Accounting High School, a branch of Eskişehir Economics and Trading Sciences Academy. The university is composed of 12 Faculties, 4 Schools, 15 Vocational Colleges and 3 Institutes.
AKÜ is named for Afyon, the short, usual name of the town ("opium" in Turkish) and the nearby Kocatepe Hill, an emblematic place in the Greek-Turkish War. In August 1922, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was stationed in Afyonkarahisar. On 26 August 1922, he decided to launch the attack known in the Turkish historiography as the "All-out battle of Supreme military commands" and known to the historians as the Battle of Dumlupınar, which ended on 30 August with the collapse of the Greek army.
