The engineers graduated from Textile Engineering Department are equipped with the knowledge of the behavior of textile materials and the functions of machinery in textile and clothing technologies. They also have strong basic engineering knowledge, analytical thinking and problem solving skills, understanding of their professional and ethical responsibilities, high level of communication skills and they can renew themselves with their investigating character.

They are employed in departments of textile plants and companies varying from small to big scale, i.e., production, planning, quality control, sales or marketing or in agencies of domestic or foreign companies for textile products and textile machinery, concentrated in different regions of Turkey. The graduates who wish to carry out their further studies are successfully accepted by national and international graduate schools.

Our Textile Engineering Program is accredited by Engineering Commission of ABET, www.abet.org

circa. 60 students are enrolled each year to the program all over Turkey and the world.

In 2018-19; 60 students have been enrolled to the program.

To continue to be a leading institution, providing an education and conducting research at the international level within the fields of textile engineering and related areas, and serving the society with Science and Technology in line with the national needs.

Through providing contemporary education and research & development opportunities at the international level, to educate pioneer and creative textile engineers, fashion designers and textile marketing associates who can employ their professional knowledge and skills to meet the requirements of and contribute to humanity, society and industry, and keep updated with scientific and technological developments, and who are conscious of the social, ethical and economical aspects and responsibilities of their profession, and to serve in advancing national and industrial developments through basic, applied and multidisciplinary researches within the fields of textiles.

The program educational objectives reflect the needs of our constituencies and have been reviewed and validated by our constituents. (15/12/2010)

In this context;

1. Our graduates will manage textile production processes and identify and solve textile engineering problems.

2. Our graduates will take effective roles in the organization of textile businesses both globally and locally.

3. Our graduates will perform multidisciplinary design activities that result in desired textile-based products, systems, or processes that support care of the environment and health and that provide economy, wealth, and quality.

4. Our graduates will engage in both life-long learning and continuous self improvement, follow scientific and technological developments, and initiate or conduct research and development activities in the field of textile engineering.

In order to achieve the Program Educational Objectives the graduates of the Textile Engineering Undergraduate Program must have:

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.

3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.

4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.

5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.

6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.

7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
