The language of instruction in both our Bachelor&#8217;s and Master&#8217;s programs is 100% English. Before starting their studies in our department, undergraduate students receive one year of foreign language education at the School of Foreign Languages. Students who successfully complete their language education are entitled to begin the 4-year \/ 8-semester Computer Engineering program. In the 2014-2015 academic year, our department updated its education system: students who successfully complete all their courses after 7 semesters of theoretical education take part in the CO-OP (Cooperative Education in Industry) program in the 8th semester. In the CO-OP system, our students work for one semester at companies that have agreements with our university, gaining hands-on experience and the opportunity to build close ties with the industry.<\/p>\n\n    <p>The Department of Computer Engineering also offers graduate education within the Graduate School of Education, in the Computer-Electronics Engineering master&#8217;s program, which is run jointly with the Department of Electronics Engineering.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"vmh__grid\">\n    <section class=\"vmh__card\" id=\"vision\">\n      <h2 class=\"vmh__title\"><span class=\"vmh__icon\">\ud83d\udc41<\/span>Our Vision<\/h2>\n      <p>To carry out academic and scientific research in information technologies, a field that significantly shapes our age, and, with our contemporary and international approach to education, to educate computer engineers who have the potential to shape the information age and the skills to meet international needs.<\/p>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"vmh__card\" id=\"mission\">\n      <h2 class=\"vmh__title\"><span class=\"vmh__icon\">\ud83c\udfaf<\/span>Our Mission<\/h2>\n      <p>To educate computer engineers at undergraduate and graduate levels who are self-confident, inclined to teamwork and equipped with analytical thinking, an indispensable quality of engineering, through qualified academics with international experience, modern laboratories and a contemporary curriculum, and thereby to become the knowledge hub of our region at national and international levels.<\/p>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"vmh__card vmh__card--wide\" id=\"goals\">\n      <h2 class=\"vmh__title\"><span class=\"vmh__icon\">\ud83d\ude80<\/span>Goals<\/h2>\n      <ol class=\"vmh__list\">\n        <li>To offer, adopt and develop student-centered and project-based education and instruction,<\/li>\n        <li>To enable students to gain lifelong learning skills and abilities through project responsibilities, and to instill critical thinking,<\/li>\n        <li>To provide teaching opportunities that include up-to-date knowledge and professional practices,<\/li>\n        <li>To build an industry-academia network to develop the best tools from practice and the most advanced knowledge from academia,<\/li>\n        <li>To offer solutions to the problems of industry and develop new technologies through projects developed in university-industry cooperation,<\/li>\n        <li>To build academic teams with the right skills and quality to contribute to the faculty&#8217;s activities in teaching, research and entrepreneurship.<\/li>\n      <\/ol>\n    <\/section>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Department The Department of Computer Engineering at Hasan Kalyoncu University admitted its first students in the 2009-2010 academic year.
