Mechanical Engineering

Istinye University Mechanical Engineering Program education period is 4 years and the language of education is English. Mechanical engineering students take their first steps into engineering in their first year with common engineering courses such as physics, mathematics, computer programming and computer aided drawing. In the 2nd and 3rd grades, they have knowledge about thermodynamics, dynamics, strength, fluid mechanics, manufacturing methods and machine elements, which are the basic courses of mechanical engineering. In the 3rd and 4th grades, they develop their design and analysis skills, interdisciplinary working competencies, teamwork and leadership skills for these teams with department and faculty elective courses for the areas they want to specialize in.

Our students work on special industrial-purpose graduation projects that include experimental and numerical studies and machine design. They graduate as multi-faceted individuals with a scientific and engineering mindset, adopting lifelong learning, developed self-confidence and communication skills, high ethical values, pioneering, innovative, producing solutions for sustainable technologies.

Rabia Tuğçe Şahin

Mechanical Engineering, 2023

After completing my undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering, I began a Master’s program in Metallurgy and Materials Engineering at Yıldız Technical University, in line with my interest in materials science. During my undergraduate studies, I focused particularly on advanced materials. Based on the data I obtained during this period, I published an article in Materials Today: Communications and presented my work to an international academic audience at the IMMC 2024 conference.In addition to my academic work, I took an active role in experimental design and analysis processes in laboratory environments. I was awarded support under the TÜBİTAK 2209-A Program, which allowed me to conduct my research with a scholarship. I also gained hands-on field experience in project development and engineering applications through the TEKNOFEST Mid-Altitude Rocket Competition.All of these experiences have significantly improved my ability to transform theoretical knowledge into practical application.

I am Ömer Faruk Atak, a Mechanical Engineer currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering at Istanbul Technical University. Throughout my university years, I developed a strong interest in the applied fields of engineering. In particular, my research on advanced engineering materials led to a publication in the international journal Materials Today: Communications, and I had the opportunity to present this work at a major international conference, IMMC 2024.During my research, I gained significant experience in experimental studies and managing laboratory processes. As a project leader, I received official support through the TÜBİTAK 2209-A Program. In addition, by participating in the TEKNOFEST Mid-Altitude Rocket Competition, I improved myself in interdisciplinary teamwork, production process management, and field applications.Currently, I work as an Airbus Aircraft Maintenance Engineer at Turkish Airlines, and I am highly motivated to bridge my academic background with industry practice.
