Students start their 4-year Computer Engineering education with introductory courses such as object-oriented programming and algorithm design, which form the basis of important subjects such as data structures and algorithm analysis, operating systems, programming languages, databases, computer networks. In addition to departmental courses, courses in mathematics, science and other engineering disciplines are also offered to assist in their further studies. In addition, in their final year, our students receive a graduation project that can solve a comprehensive problem which they will encounter in real life. The courses are given in classrooms, workshops and laboratories within the Faculty of Engineering. Our department gives special importance to applied education with its modern laboratories including the Basic Computer Laboratory, the Basic Electrical-Electronics Laboratory and the Numerical Design and Microprocessor Laboratory, which include state-of-the-art equipment and computers with high-speed internet and powerful equipment. In addition, our students can use these laboratories in extracurricular activities for their homework, projects and research throughout their education life. In addition, our department supports students` participation in international education projects such as ERASMUS, provides internship opportunities to students, and offers opportunities focused on student benefit in every sense with student community activities.
