Faculty of Engineering

Hello, I'm Assistant Professor Metin Zontul. I am the dean of Istanbul Topkapı University Faculty of Engineering. I am also a faculty member at the Department of Computer Engineering. Our Faculty was established in the 2018-2019 academic year. Currently, there are Computer Engineering and Software Engineering Departments. We are planning to open Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Industrial Engineering Departments in the 2022-2023 academic year. We are trying to offer courses that are in line with the needs of the sector. Software and Hardware courses are available in our faculty. In addition, we try to educate the students on the importance of ethical values, teamwork and social responsibility. In the departments of Computer Engineering and Software Engineering, we have Hardware and Software Laboratories. All of our courses are carried out practically. We also have a suitable infrastructure for distance education. In addition, we work in an integrated manner with the Entrepreneurship Office, and we also use the laboratories reserved for the Entrepreneurship Office. In our faculty, we dedicate the 8th semester to internship and graduation projects, and our students spend the entire semester working in businesses. In this way, they come together with the sector before graduating and their job opportunities increase after graduation. Our university offers the ERASMUS Program and we have agreements with many European countries. Our students can spend 1 or 2 semesters abroad, and they can also do their summer internship abroad. The Faculty of Engineering and the Entrepreneurship Office has formed a joint initiative. Together we founded the Blockchain Initiative Group. As a Blockchain Initiative Group, we involve our students in training and projects. In addition, students and professors from other universities can also participate in this ecosystem. Students of the Faculty of Engineering find many job opportunities in the public and private sectors. Especially computer Engineering and Software Engineering students can easily find job opportunities in the fields of computer hardware, computer security and computer software. Engineering Faculty students have difficulties especially in mathematical courses and software courses. In the face of these difficulties, we also support our students closely. We solve the problems of our students through Whatsapp groups, online education and on one-to-one sessions we hold with them. We recommend the Faculty of Engineering especially for students who can think analytically, focused on problem solving, and love to work in teams. As it is known, Istanbul has a large ecosystem not only culturally but also in terms of the private sector. As Istanbul Topkapı University, we direct our students to both social activities and the private sector, and we ensure that they also take part in this ecosystem. I wish success to students who will choose Istanbul Topkapı University, Faculty of Engineering.
