Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences

Program Educational Objectives

1. To conduct research and development activities by working in R&D units or pursuing graduate studies at universities.
2. To work in various sectors, particularly in automation, robotics, automotive, defense industry, and autonomous systems.
3. To develop or actively contribute to interdisciplinary projects within their institutions.
4. To establish technology-oriented commercial enterprises and entrepreneurial initiatives.

Program Learning Outcomes

1. Adequate knowledge in mathematics, natural sciences, and mechatronics engineering; ability to apply theoretical and applied knowledge in these areas to model and solve engineering problems.
2. Ability to identify, define, formulate, and solve complex mechatronics engineering problems; ability to select and apply appropriate analysis and modeling methods for this purpose.
3. Ability to design a complex mechatronics engineering system, process, device, or product to meet specific requirements under realistic constraints and conditions; ability to apply modern design methods for this purpose. (Realistic constraints and conditions may include factors such as economic, environmental, sustainability, manufacturability, ethical, health, safety, social, and political issues, depending on the nature of the design.)
4. Ability to develop, select, and use modern techniques and tools required for mechatronics engineering, robotics, autonomous systems, and automation applications; ability to effectively use information technologies.
5. Ability to design experiments, conduct experiments, collect data, analyze, and interpret results for the investigation of mechatronics engineering, robotics, autonomous systems, and automation problems.
6. Ability to work effectively both individually and in intra-disciplinary and multidisciplinary teams (particularly in collaboration with mechanical, electrical-electronics, and computer engineering).
7. Ability to communicate effectively in written and oral form in both Turkish and English.
8. Recognition of the necessity of lifelong learning required by mechatronics engineering; ability to access, interpret, and improve information; ability to follow scientific and technological developments and continuously renew oneself.
9. Awareness of professional and ethical responsibility; competence to contribute to the advancement of the profession.
10. Knowledge of mechatronics engineering practices in project management, risk management, and change management; awareness of entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainable development.
11. Knowledge of the universal and societal impacts of mechatronics engineering practices on health, environment, and safety, as well as contemporary issues; awareness of the legal consequences of engineering solutions.
