Historical decision on historical bridges
Civil Engineering, being one of the oldest engineering disciplines, has an important role of contributing to the safe, sustainable and urban living of mankind. Today, a considerable number of our young people select this profession with an ambition to push the borders, to generate tomorrow’s world and at the same time to increase their own standard of living to higher levels.
The Civil Engineering Department is well aware that, high quality education and strong research programme are the two essential factors that make a well established institution. The Department’s vision is to graduate both nationally and internationally well recognized engineers and to provide service to Civil Engineering profession along with public benefit. To this aim, we define our Department’s mission as “to prepare the students as responsible, open minded, theoretically and practically well equipped, creative, ethical, sociable, team player individuals that are concerned about the public benefits, so that they can contribute to their profession”.
During their four-years study the students gain knowledge on engineering sciences and fundamental knowledge on each of the civil engineering disciplines, including structural engineering, geotechnics, transportation, hydraulics, construction materials, environmental engineering and construction management. The elective courses in the curriculum provide the students the opportunity to broaden their knowledge on their interest area. They also have the opportunity to get acquaintance with the real work environment early in their educational life, by means of the two practical internships they complete during their study.
As prospective civil engineers, while gaining skills on computers, foreign language, engineering sciences and professional knowledge, our students also participate in various activities, such as career days and conferences, which improve their abilities and talents in various areas including, ability to work in teams, to being creative, to design, to be successful in business and social life, and to acquire lifelong learning skills. Our Department, with close ties to construction sector and NGO’s, also organizes activities involving engineering practice such as construction site visits and sectorial exhibitions, organizes collaborative international symposiums and conferences, provide opportunities to the students to join student club activities and student competitions.
Turkish construction sector has important contributions to the national economy and is among the highest rank in the world business. The graduates of our Civil Engineering Department, equipped with education in English, can work in national or foreign companies that operate in our country or abroad; or can start up their own private business enterprise or pursue an academic career. Many public institutions, municipalities or their affiliates are in a continuous need of civil engineers. Besides the fact that Civil Engineering is one of the oldest engineering disciplines, the need for Civil Engineers has never declined and the business opportunities in diverse areas are almost infinite.
Students of Civil Engineering Department will benefit from Topography, Soil Mechanics and Construction Materials Laboratories as well as Computer, Drawing and Fluid Mechanics Laboratories at the Faculty. Experiments and applications are provided in these laboratories with modern equipments.
One of the founders and former head of the Yeditepe University Civil Engineering Department, previous president of the Turkish Structural Steel Association and the European Structural Steel Association (ECCS), ECCS Silver Medal and Charles Massonnet Science Award winner, the first female board member and the first female chairman of ECCS and has served as the chairman twice with an interval of five years, one of the most prominent scientists in the field of construction and steel in Turkey, Prof. Dr. Nesrin Yardımcı Tiryakioğlu, passed away on 18.11.2022.

Admission of undergraduate students and hence undergraduate education has began in 2008-2009 Fall Semester. Soil Mechanics and Construction Materials Laboratories have been deployed and become operational in 2010. Double Major programmes are also established in 2010.
Following the separation of Architecture Department, the faculty has been renamed as Faculty of Engineering in 26.08.2014. The graduate programme in Civil Engineering has been approved on 15.09.2015.
As of 2018-2019 academic year, the department’s full-time academic staff of the department consists of 2 Professors, 6 Assistant Professors, 1 Instructor, Ph.D., 1 Research Assistant and 1 Professor from the Materials Science and Nanotechnology Department. Besides the full-time staff, further academicians are also participating in teaching acvities, employed in different universities such as ITU and YTU. The assisting staff consists of 8 graduate scholars and a laboratory technician.
The Civil Engineering Department was founded in 2008 with 45 admitted students, and first group of students were graduated in 2012. As of 2018-19 Academic Year, the Department had 93 students attending the English preparatory school, 467 students in the undergraduate studies and 13 graduate students. 34 students were graduated at the Fall and 57 students were graduated at the Spring semester of the 2018-2019 Academic Year, totalling 91 students this year. Since its foundation the Department has graduated 367 students.
Today, the construction industry progresses at an incredible pace. In this context, new buildings and projects are seen around every day. In such an industry that is advancing at an unstoppable pace, there is a natural need for engineer brains to carry out engineering activities in the field of construction. In this context, Civil Engineering Departments were established to meet the needs of civil engineers. In these departments, where 4-year undergraduate education is given, courses focused on mathematics, physics and materials technology are given. Students are provided with training on the design, analysis, construction and maintenance of structural places such as dams, ports, roads and buildings, and in this context, they are provided with the necessary equipment. Civil Engineering Department also aims to raise productive and creative individuals who develop optimum solutions to physical events. After 4 years of undergraduate education, graduates of the department have the title of Civil Engineer. The persons in question have the authority to sign under the construction projects. In other words, a building cannot be designed without a civil engineer, and naturally it cannot be built.

By the decision of the Rectorate, voluntary internship insurance will only be covered for up to 4 months during the summer period. Every student has the right to do a voluntary internship once a year.
Summer practices complement and continue vocational education, besides the professional knowledge acquired at university, and are carried out in an active company or institution. The main purpose of the summer practice is to gain new practical and technical skills related to the profession, get to know business life and learn to communicate effectively with other disciplines and managers.
Nowadays, an engineer is expected to work harmoniously and efficiently, not only in his/her own field, but also near all other relevant units according to his/her degree of interest. Internship is a work experience that helps meet these needs and is an inevitable opportunity to learn the intricacies of business life without taking serious responsibility. The summer practice process can also be described as one of the opening doors to the domestic and international construction world, considering the interaction with the institution you work for. In these respects, we recommend that internship studies be carried out seriously and with due care.
Summer Practices at Yeditepe University Civil Engineering Department consist of two stages: Construction Site Internship (CE 300), which must be done at the end of the 2nd year, and Office/Bureau Internship (CE 400), which must be done at the end of the 3rd year.
1. The compulsory summer practices of the Department of Civil Engineering consist of two separate compulsory practice: CE 300 Summer Practice I (Construction Site Internship), which must be done at the end of the 2nd year, and CE 400 Summer Practice II (Office Internship), which must be done at the end of the 3rd year. In order to be eligible for graduation, Civil Engineering Department students must have completed both Summer Practices and passed the relevant courses.
2. CE 300 Construction Site Internship aims to provide the student with basic construction works/manufacturing information at a construction site where construction is ongoing. Production stages, processes and progress payment studies are evaluated within the scope of the construction site internship.
3. CE 400 Office internship aims to increase the student's knowledge and experience regarding projects and related office work. The works carried out in the office internship may be examples of basic design knowledge such as static and structural analysis and design, geotechnical calculations, earthquake calculations, hydraulic calculations. In addition, administrative and financial/legal studies such as project planning, project management, survey-quantity work, tender dossier preparation may also be included in the internship content.
4. Long-Term Internship: According to YÜMFSUE Article 4/f, Long-Term Internship is defined as "It covers work experience internships that continue throughout the entire education period, starting after the 6th semester, provided that a cooperation agreement has been signed between our university and the institution where the internship will take place." A long-term internship can be considered as a voluntary internship or, if it meets the conditions for compulsory internships and is requested by the student, it can be accepted as a compulsory internship with the approval of the department internship coordinator and the decision of the Department Committee. YÜMFSUE Article 7: Long-term internship can be considered as/instead of compulsory internship if the student meets the Departmental internship criteria and with the approval of the Department Committee. Long-Term Internship in the Department of Civil Engineering is carried out only in accordance with the content of CE 400 Summer Practice II (Office Internship); Long-term internships cannot be performed for CE 300 Summer Practice I (Construction Site Internship).
5. ERASMUS Internships: As stated in Article 9 of YÜMFSUE, if students want to do an Erasmus internship in schools, universities and businesses abroad that they find with their own means and approved by their departments, they complete the necessary documents and apply after our university International Office announces the internship application date and take a language exam. Afterwards, students entitled to an Erasmus internship grant fill out their acceptance letter, application form and contracts, then submit them to the office by the date determined by The University's International Office. The Erasmus Internship is implemented in accordance with the provisions of the Handbook on Student and Staff Mobility in Higher Education Among ERASMUS+1 Program Countries, prepared by the European Union Education and Youth Programs Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Türkiye for higher education institutions that carry out mobility activities within the scope of the contract period of the relevant year.

Yeditepe University Civil Engineering applies an effective Bologna Process to its students during their education. The aim of Bologna Drive is to standardize the non-standard practices that have occurred between the elite universities of Europe and our department. In this process, the student continues his education life in a more equipped way.
The double major program (DMP) allows students enrolled in an undergraduate program to obtain a second bachelor's degree from another department if they meet certain requirements. Thus, the students who have successfully completed the DMP can have a diploma from both the main department and the second major department. The conditions required for admission to the program, to continue and to receive the second degree are specified in the regulation.
In order to graduate from a second major program, a student admitted to the Double Major Program must successfully complete all courses in this program. However, since there are common courses and equivalent courses between the departments, it is sufficient for the student to take the difference courses determined by the faculties and departments from the second major program. The follow-up of the difference courses is carried out by an advisor appointed by the department where the second major program is held. The list of the departments that can be done with the Civil Engineering Department and the programs that the students of these departments have to follow (programs can be downloaded by clicking on the links) are given below.
NOTE: Civil Engineering Department students who want to do a double major in another department can obtain the necessary information about the double major program from the department they apply.
The minor program allows students enrolled in an undergraduate program to complete a group of courses from another department if they meet certain requirements, allowing them to become knowledgeable in this field and to receive a certificate of this department. The conditions for admission to the program, to continue and to receive a certificate are specified in the regulation. The courses to be taken by the students from other departments in the Civil Engineering Department minor program and the amount of credits to be completed are given in the link below.
