Dear Students,
Welcome to the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Istanbul Health and Technology University.
Our Faculty comprises nine departments: Industrial Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Industrial Design Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Architecture, and Molecular Biology and Genetics, With 15 different undergraduate programmes taught in both Turkish and English, we aim to prepare you for the future in virtually every field of engineering and the natural sciences. At our Sütlüce Campus, situated on the shores of the Golden Horn in the heart of Istanbul, we are shaping the future together with you through modern laboratories, a strong academic staff and an educational approach that is closely integrated with industry and the business world.
For us, engineering and the natural sciences are not merely about formulas and equations; they are a way of thinking, an art of problem-solving, and a responsibility to make the world a better place. Designed and implemented with this belief in mind, our curricula are constantly updated in line with the latest technological developments and the new approaches and needs emerging at both national and global levels; by blending theoretical knowledge with academia-industry partnerships, we equip our students with real-world industry experience. Through our project-based modules and final-year dissertations, we aim to develop our students’ research skills; whilst, using modern educational tools and laboratory facilities, we seek to provide them with the experience of applying the theoretical knowledge they have learnt in their lessons.
In line with the multidisciplinary approach required by the information age in which we live, we offer our successful students the opportunity to pursue double majors and minors from the third semester onwards; furthermore, through the Erasmus+ programme, we provide them with the chance to study at leading universities across Europe. Through these initiatives, our aim is not merely to produce individuals holding a degree or diploma, but to nurture individuals who are critical thinkers, entrepreneurial in spirit, committed to ethical values, environmentally conscious, future-focused, possessing a global vision, committed to lifelong learning, and equipped not only with knowledge but also with the necessary skills.
Dear young people; engineering and the natural sciences are an endless field of discovery for inquisitive minds. You too can leave your mark in bringing a piece of software to life line by line, unravelling the secrets of a molecule, designing and constructing a structure, or enhancing the efficiency of a production line.
We invite you to embark on a journey to become an engineer and scientist who questions, innovates, envisions the future and turns those visions into reality. We would like you to know that you will not be alone on this journey; together with our academic and administrative staff, the strong network formed by our alumni and all the resources our university has to offer, we will be right by your side.
With the hope that we may build the future together.
