About the Department of Computer Engineering

Computer Engineering is a branch of engineering that includes the applications of algorithmic processes encountered in the field of hardware and software. It also provides solutions to problems encountered in technological, economic, scientific and social fields. There are four main areas in which students are trained in this discipline: theory, abstraction, design and practice. Theory provides the mathematical and scientific background of computing. Abstraction involves the principles of modeling algorithms, data structures, hardware architecture. Design and practice refers to the use of tools and theory necessary for the development of hardware-software systems. These tools include programming languages, databases, network protocols, client/server architecture, artificial intelligence, etc.

Computer Engineering programs include courses in basic sciences, basic engineering, social sciences and computer science. The foundation of Computer Engineering is provided by courses in theory, programming, computer organization, numerical design, numerical analysis, algorithms and data structures. In advanced classes, operating systems design, database applications, computer graphics, computer architecture, microprocessors, programming languages, object-oriented programming methods and software engineering are covered. Final year students combine their creativity, knowledge and motivation with the latest technology to prepare a final project.

The Department of Computer Engineering of our university aims to train computer engineers who have knowledge in the fields of science and mathematics as well as computer engineering and who can use the theoretical and practical knowledge they have received during their undergraduate education to solve problems by transferring them to the field of engineering. At the same time, engineering students should be aware of the global security and environmental impacts of these applications.

Our department, which has been continuously accredited by the European accreditation body MÜDEK (Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Education Programs) since 2008, provides education in accordance with international standards. In this sense, students are given theoretical and practical training on computer networks, hardware basics and software, and thanks to the 8 general purpose and 10 special purpose laboratories within the department, students can conduct research and develop projects according to their fields of interest.

Students who can double major in many different undergraduate programs can receive a second diploma. In this sense, graduates of our department have the opportunity to work in different sectors as well as computer engineering.
