About

This program trains energy technicians who have the knowledge and skills related to their profession in every process from the production of electricity to its consumption, to meet the need for equipped intermediate staff of the future in fossil fuel and renewable (alternative) energy-based energy facilities.

Competencies

The first indicator of whether students are trained in line with the goals and standards determined in many sectors is that the graduating students find jobs in the field and establish themselves. In addition, students' successful use of the theoretical knowledge and practices they have acquired during the internship, sharing this information with those working in similar fields and carrying out their duties in cooperation can be considered as success criteria. Our students who graduate from this program receive the title of "Technician".

Job oppurtunities

Technological developments have created a need for intermediate staff in every branch of industry. In particular, our age is rapidly moving towards the energy age. The value of energy for the world is increasing day by day, while fossil-based energies are being consumed rapidly. The fact that fossil energy reserves will one day be exhausted forces the industry and science world to find new energy sources. Especially industry and scientists are making intense efforts to bring renewable energy resources to the service of humanity.

Maximum profit should be achieved in return for minimum investment from the energy provided from fossil and renewable energy sources. Therefore, it is essential that the technical staff or intermediate staff working in the energy sector are equipped with issues such as energy production methods, usage, and energy recycling systems. Today, since there is an extreme need for well-equipped and knowledgeable intermediate staff in the energy sector, those who successfully graduate from the department in question will easily have employment opportunities in every field of the energy sector.

Students who receive the title of "Energy Technician" will find a wide range of job opportunities as designers or practitioners in the fields of energy production, transmission, distribution and use. The current organizations where graduates can work are the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, General Directorate of Petroleum Affairs (PIGM), Mineral Research and Exploration Institute (MTA), Electrical Power Resources Survey and Development Administration (EİE), EÜAŞ, TEİAŞ, TEDAŞ, DSİ, TKİ, TTK, TPAO, BOTAŞ, TÜPRAŞ, TAEK can be listed. Apart from this, nowadays many local and foreign organizations are investing in fuel cells, solar cells, solar chimneys, bioenergy, geothermal, wind and hydraulic power plants.

In the coming years, it is expected that other energy sources such as boron, which have not been used so far, will come into play with the construction of nuclear power plants. In all these areas, energy technicians will be needed at every level, starting from the R&D level to ensuring energy distribution in the most economical way. It is also possible to add energy technicians who will take part in the work to be carried out since Turkey is an energy corridor in the north-south and east-west directions. In addition to these job opportunities, they will be able to be placed in the mechanical engineering, energy engineering, energy systems engineering, mechanical engineering, energy teaching and plumbing teaching departments of the faculties with the vertical transfer exam. It is expected that graduates will face similar demands abroad as well as at home.

Vertical transmission

It is possible to transfer to 4-year undergraduate programs such as Electrical Engineering, Electrical-Electronics Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Physics, Aviation Electrical and Electronics, Control Engineering, Meteorological Engineering, Aircraft Electrical-Electronics.
