The Department of Architecture, which received its first students with the Central Placement System (with Mathematics Score) in the 1989-1990 academic year, had its first graduates in the 1993-1994 academic year. There is only Normal Education (Turkish) program in our department.

A good architect is someone who knows both the arts and social sciences and the characteristics of business life. For this reason, the person who will choose this profession should be a creative person who is prone to design and art, together with academic success. The aim of the Architectural Education Program is to provide students with sufficient information in the basic fields of architecture, to develop their skills and abilities, to teach the methods and ways of thinking that will enable them to use their creativity, to gain experience, to observe personal rights in the context of the law and to raise a good citizen who protects and respects the public interest and has gained professional ethics.
