Dear Students, Esteemed Academics, and Industry Representatives,

Throughout history, maritime transport has played a crucial role in the development of civilizations and has been a cornerstone of global trade and interaction. Today, a significant portion of world trade is conducted via maritime transport, and the industry is undergoing rapid transformation through innovative solutions and sustainability principles. As the Maritime Transportation and Management Engineering Department, our primary goal is to train the qualified professionals who will lead this transformation.

Our department provides students with not only technical knowledge but also managerial skills, problem-solving abilities, and strategic thinking competencies. We take pride in educating engineers who meet international standards and can respond to the evolving needs of the maritime sector. One of our key priorities is ensuring that our students understand global maritime regulations and develop a strong sense of environmental responsibility.

Through industry collaborations and hands-on training, we offer students the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios and gain practical experience. Our graduates will have diverse career opportunities both nationally and internationally and will be equipped to take on leadership roles in the maritime industry.

With a strong academic staff and modern infrastructure, our department remains committed to supporting the future maritime leaders in the best possible way.

Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Ergün DEMİREL
