The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering was founded
in 1976. After the Faculty of Electrical Engineering
had been founded in 1977, both of the faculties
were unified in 1982 under the name of the Faculty
of Engineering of Uludağ University, which was
composed of Electronics, Mechanical and Textile
Engineering departments. At present, the faculty
has been carrying on its educational program
in six departments, which are Electronics, Mechanical,
Textile, Industrial and Environmental Engineering
Departments and Architecture Department. In the
Faculty, the Department of Civil Engineering
has been established, but no student has been
taken up to now. In all departments of the Faculty
of Engineering and Architecture, an educational
program assisted in Foreign Language Training
has been going on.
The Faculty of Engineering and Architecture has
got six buildings in Görükle Campus, all of which
cover an area of 15.220 m2 , in which nineteen
classes, twenty-nine labs of different sizes,
seven computer labs, three libraries, two technical
drawing halls, a meeting hall, a room for commission
meetings, a seminar hall and a cafeteria for
students take place.
Our students can also benefit from the services
of software such as Unigraphics, IDEAS, ANSYS,
Catia, and Fluent, which can be reached through
computer labs, various compliers and software
such as AutoCad, Matlab, Pascal, C++, Delphi
etc. which work in PCs.
In the workshops which are equipped with necessary
instruments and machines so that they can serve
two basic purposes, the students of our faculty
have their first term training and also manufacturing
studies related to research work are carried
out.
The first goal of the Technology
Foundation of the Faculty Engineering and Architecture
of Uludağ University is to contribute to train
engineers and architects who have excellent characters,
and who are loyal to the principles of M. Kemal
Atatürk, and who have a sense of contemporary science
and who are equipped with investigation and research
abilities. Moreover, some basic objectives of the
foundation are to develop the co-operation between
industry and university, to perform scientific
and technological studies related to research and
development and support them. In 1996, within the
structure of the Foundation, an important business
enterprise named UTEV, Scientific and Technical
Research, Counsellorship and Educational Services
Company was set up. Its fundamental purposes are
to render services of research, counselor-ship
and education to industrial and commercial institutions
and to satisfy several needs of not only our students
but also our staff in the fields of education and
scientific research and development.
