CU occupies a foremost place among other Turkish universities with its 10 faculties, 1 state conservatory, 3 colleges, 9 vocational colleges, 3 institutes and 29 research and application centres. This tranquil setting by the Seyhan Lake is complemented by a motivated staff, innovative labs and modern libraries. The university considers providing highly qualified graduates to Turkey as a top priority. Despite this relative downsizing in 1992, it is observed that the university had grown even stronger by 1993 when the 20th anniversary of the University was celebrated.

The number of the faculties rose to 10 when the faculties of Fisheries, Theology, Dentistry and Fine Arts were established. In 2003 after receiving the EPS, Cukurova University stayed a dynamic partner for European universities.
