Yes — until March 2025 Cyprus Aydın University was known as "Cyprus Science University"; its name changed at that point. Knowing both the old and new names matters for students and researchers tracking sources and documents. The campus location and academic structure stayed the same; only the corporate identity was updated. Such a change reflects the university's ties to the Aydın education group. Students should bear in mind that official paperwork may carry either name.

This position offers students both a calm setting and easy access to city and coastal amenities. They generally stay in flats in Ozanköy, central Kyrenia and nearby districts.
