Dear Students, Esteemed Scholars,
In keeping with our commitment to excellence in science and education, our Faculty’s primary objective is to provide opportunities that enable each individual to realise their full potential, offering students a rigorous academic foundation and furnishing academics and researchers with a stimulating environment alongside opportunities for national and international collaboration.
Central to the Faculty’s mission is a profound sense of responsibility to society, with the foremost priority being to ensure that knowledge and technology are applied in ways that are meaningful, sustainable, and beneficial to the wider community.
Dear Students,
With the awareness that the fundamental sciences constitute the foundation of every scientific and technological advancement that enriches life, as well as all engineering applications, and recognising their crucial role together with the humanities in shaping the future of our nation and humanity at large, we have developed and implemented the “YTÜ-FEF Fundamental Sciences Education Model.” This model integrates high-quality core education with innovative certificate programmes and not only equips students with profound expertise in their respective fields but also prepares them to advance their knowledge across both disciplinary and interdisciplinary domains of specialisation.
As part of this model, the faculty-wide compulsory courses Introduction to Artificial Intelligence, Introduction to Basic Computer Technologies, Career Planning and Professional Ethics, and Social Responsibility and Justice have been integrated into the curriculum. These courses aim to enhance technological proficiency, provide knowledge and experience in career development and management, and foster both self-awareness and an understanding of societal challenges, thereby enabling you to acquire the essential personal, social, emotional, and human skills required.
Our academic programmes are meticulously designed to enhance your scientific thinking, reinforce your commitment to ethical principles, and nurture your sense of social responsibility, whilst preparing you to become the researchers and scientists of tomorrow. Upon graduation from our Faculty, you will be distinguished as individuals who are internationally competitive, highly employable, inquisitive, analytical, value-generating, and solution-oriented. Every step you take from this point forward represents not only a contribution to your personal career but also a meaningful investment in the future of science and society.
Esteemed Scholars,
Your contributions are essential to the Faculty’s educational and research endeavours. We remain steadfast in our support for your efforts to conduct research of international calibre and to lead interdisciplinary projects. Through close collaboration with public institutions, the private sector, and civil society organisations, we are committed to amplifying the social impact of your work and transforming your scientific achievements into tangible benefits for wider communities.
Guided by our vision to become a leading centre of excellence in the fundamental sciences and humanities, the Faculty is dedicated to educating our students to the highest academic standards, supporting our academics and researchers, and fostering impactful projects that deliver enduring value to society.
