Program Outcomes
1) A solid foundation in mathematics, natural sciences, and computer engineering; the ability to apply both theoretical and practical knowledge in these fields to model and solve complex engineering problems.
2) The ability to identify, define, formulate, and solve complex computer engineering problems; and to select and apply appropriate analysis and modeling methods for this purpose.
3) The ability to design complex computer engineering systems, processes, devices, or products to meet specified requirements under realistic constraints and conditions; and to apply modern design methodologies for this purpose. (Realistic constraints and conditions may include economic, environmental, sustainability, manufacturability, ethical, health, safety, social, and political factors depending on the nature of the design.)
4) The ability to develop, select, and use modern techniques and tools required for the analysis and solution of complex problems encountered in computer engineering applications; and the ability to effectively utilize information technologies.
5) The ability to design and conduct experiments, collect data, analyze and interpret results for the investigation of complex computer engineering problems.
6) The ability to work effectively both individually and in disciplinary and multidisciplinary teams (particularly with software and mechatronics engineering).
7) The ability to communicate effectively in both Turkish and English, both orally and in writing; including effective report writing and comprehension of written reports, preparation of reports, delivering effective presentations, and the ability to give and receive clear and understandable instructions.
8) Awareness of the necessity of lifelong learning required by computer engineering; the ability to access, interpret, and develop knowledge, to follow advancements in science and technology, and to continuously update oneself.
9) The ability to act in accordance with ethical principles; awareness of professional and ethical responsibilities, and knowledge of standards used in computer engineering practices.
10) Knowledge of project management and computer engineering practices such as risk management and change management; awareness of entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainable development.
11) Knowledge of the impacts of computer engineering applications on health, environment, and safety at universal and societal levels; awareness of contemporary issues and the legal implications of engineering solutions.
