Yalova University Centeral Research Laboratory

I'm Professor Gökhan Temel. I completed my undergraduate and graduate education at Istanbul Technical University and Yıldız Technical University, respectively. I have been working as a faculty member at Yalova University since 2009. I have been working as the director of the Central Research Laboratory Research and Application Center (YUMERLAB) since 2021. Yalova University Central Research Laboratory and Application Center has been operating in the central campus of our university since 2012. Our center provides services to carry out thesis studies and projects in the fields of metal, plastic, composite, biomaterials and nanomaterials, which are carried out under the consultancy of faculty members in the Faculty of Engineering and vocational schools. In this context, our priority is to contribute to science, as well as to support the studies of researchers and students at the university, and to provide the test and analysis service needed by the businesses in the industry. Our laboratory provides quality and safe service to anyone who wants to benefit from it, with its technological infrastructure necessary to contribute to scientific and technological developments to facilitate human life. Undergraduate students at our university can perform the applications of various courses with the devices in our center, accompanied by a faculty member. In this way, when students graduate, they adapt to the industry more easily and are one step ahead of other candidates in job applications. In addition, students in undergraduate programs are offered internship opportunities in our laboratories. Our graduate students, on the other hand, can complete their master's and doctoral theses by making use of the devices in our center during their thesis studies. Our research center serves researchers and students in the departments of Chemical Engineering, Polymer Materials Engineering and Energy Engineering at Yalova University aims to contribute to almost all departments in engineering and basic sciences. Thanks to the education and experience they will gain at the university, our students will graduate as individuals who are well-equipped and competent in their field of study.
