Department of Instrument Construction and Repair

I'm Elif Yıldız. I am a 4th-year student at Anadolu University State Conservatory, Instrument Making and Repair Department. Our department provides training on string instrument making. It admits students through an aptitude test. The aptitude test has three stages. The first stage is the hearing exam, the second stage is the visual memory-based painting exam, and the third stage is the workshop skills exam. Our department is located in Anadolu University Yunus Emre Campus. In our department, we have a Workshop course as our main course. In addition, we have Restoration, Italian Language, Polishing Methods, Acoustic Physics, and Instrument courses. There is a workshop for students in our Instrument Making and Repair Department. In our workshop, there is a workbench for each student and a cupboard to put their belongings in. We have the right to receive optional internship training for three months in our department. After graduation, students can establish their own workshops or proceed on the academic path after completing a master's degree to get to know the native instruments organologically and have a better command of the instruments. I chose my department to have full knowledge of native instruments and receive organological education. I chose Anadolu University because it is a well-established institution that provides proper education, social activities, concerts, and social events. After graduating, I want to become an academic by pursuing a master's degree. The Department of Instrument Making and Repair is a department with flexible working hours. In addition, I recommend for them to be patient, innovative, and creative. I wish good luck to the candidates who will take the exam. We welcome you all to Anadolu University.
