OPERATING AND IMPLEMENTATION PRINCIPLES OF THE DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING
INTRODUCTION
Civil Engineering is one of the oldest and most fundamental branches of engineering science. It is a discipline that manages the planning, design, construction, and maintenance processes of structures intended for various purposes, with the aim of making them safe and sustainable for society. Başkent University aims to educate creative and competent engineers who can adapt to the advancing technology and scientific developments in this field. Since Civil Engineering is a continuously developing and evolving field, lifelong learning, flexibility, and innovative approaches that can keep pace with technological advancements are essential for success in this discipline. Solving increasingly significant and complex problems within the constraints imposed by time, resources, environment, safety, social factors, economy, and similar considerations is a major challenge encountered in the field of Civil Engineering.
Taking into account the production and technological goals of our country and the geographic region in which the university is located, Başkent University prioritizes providing high-quality education and training to cultivate knowledgeable, competent students who respect national values. The objectives of the Başkent University Civil Engineering Master's Program with Thesis are to enable students to:
- Operate as expert engineers who meet societal needs,
- Achieve success both domestically and internationally,
- Attain proficiency in current issues specific to the profession,
- Demonstrate the ability to solve contemporary and complex civil engineering problems through sustainable approaches,
- Gain competence in conducting scientific research,
- Demonstrate effective communication skills.
