The Mechanical Workshop at the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences of Istanbul Okan University provides students with a modern manufacturing environment where they can learn engineering design and production processes through hands-on experience. The workshop offers the infrastructure and equipment necessary for students to transform their theoretical knowledge into practical applications, covering a wide range of activities from mechanical component design to prototype manufacturing.
The workshop incorporates both traditional manufacturing methods and contemporary production techniques, offering students a comprehensive production experience. In addition to fundamental workshop tools such as machine tools, lathes, milling machines, welding equipment, and drilling and cutting systems, precision measurement devices enable students to produce parts within accurate tolerances. Through this process, students develop the ability to translate engineering drawings into physical components.
In the Mechanical Workshop, students actively experience the entire production cycle—from design and manufacturing to prototyping and assembly. Workshop activities also provide an important learning environment for understanding safe working practices, occupational safety procedures, and industrial standards. The knowledge and skills gained during these activities support students in acquiring practical competencies required in real industrial environments after graduation.
The Mechanical Workshop at Istanbul Okan University serves not only as a place for transferring theoretical knowledge but also as a practical learning platform where students can experience real manufacturing processes and transform engineering design concepts into physical production. As a result, graduates leave the program equipped with both strong engineering knowledge and practical skills relevant to industrial manufacturing processes.
