Our Vocational School of Technical Sciences is making external collaborations for different purposes. With these collaborations, it is aimed to graduate students with the qualifications needed by the industry, high application and skill capabilities, and to provide societal contributions. In this context, constant contact is maintained with industry representatives. The purpose of these collaborations is gathered under five main headings.
· Conducting R&D quality studies
· Conducting consultancy and training studies
· Cooperation with government institutions (Vocational competence, public education centers, etc.)
· Cooperation with other universities and faculties
· Conducting internship and workplace training collaborations
Current Situation
