General Information

Mechanical Engineering Department started its graduate education in 1982 and doctorate education in 1984. Approximately 1000 students continue their undergraduate education and 200 students continue their graduate education in our department. All courses in our undergraduate and graduate education are given in English. As of October 2022, there are 17 lecturers working in our department, including 8 professors, 1 associate professor, 2 lecturers and 6 research assistants. In the Department of Mechanical Engineering, there are a total of five departments: Machine Theory and Dynamics, Construction and Manufacturing, Thermodynamics, Energy and Mechanics. Each department has its own laboratories. In addition to scientific research, these laboratories provide services for both education and industry.

Length of Programme & Number of Credits

4 Year - 240 ECTS

Feature & Definition

In the Department; There are five branches of science: Energy, Construction-Manufacturing, Machine Theory and Dynamics, Mechanics and Thermodynamics. The curriculum is prepared to give the foundations of contemporary mechanical engineering. There are seven courses in the program in the first year, two of which are compulsory and the others are elective. Thanks to these courses, students are offered a wide range of courses related to mechanical engineering. Students who complete the courses take the proficiency exam. Students who are successful in this exam start their doctoral theses, which will last at least four semesters, by submitting their thesis proposals.
