About Program
Ankara University, Energy Systems Engineering program is taught in 100% English. The department, being founded in 2022 is located in the 50th Year campus of Ankara University. Total student quota is 30 students. The program is suitable for academic developments since it is based on interdisciplinary collaborations. We strongly believe that the establishment of the department is important and beneficial since it is an integration of fundamental sciences (physics, chemistry and maths) and engineering programmes (Chemical Engineering, Electrical-Electronical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering). The major fields of research include renewable energy technologies, design of energy production systems/units and their modications and improvements, energy storage and design of energy materials. Our mission is to raise students with international level of success who will find positions in public and private sectors regarding the following areas; energy production and planning, energy services, energy efficiency, alternative energy resources, research and development, selection, improvement and utilisation of appropriate energy materials. Our vision is to become one of the unique engineering departments in Turkey providing world class infrastructure of education and research.
Goals
Energy Systems Engineering includes wide range of objectives. We aim to raise fresh engineers possessing novel and ethical values who are capable of: a) Carrying out energy efficiency and services, plant engineering, alternative energy technologies, existing and novel energy related materials production in public and private sectors, b) Being integrated into multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary studies and participating in international research, c) Owning essential cultural and knowledge to perform graduate research, d) Performing and developing national and international projects and aiming lifelong learning.
Summary of Program Outcomes
Graduates have sufficient theoretical and practical background for a successful profession and with application skills of fundamental scientific knowledge in the engineering practice, have skills and professional background in describing, formulating, modeling and analyzing the energy systems engineering problem, with a consideration for appropriate analytical solutions in all necessary situations, have necessary technical, academic and practical knowledge and application confidence in the design and assessment of machines or mechanical systems or industrial processes with considerations of productivity, feasibility and environmental and social aspects,
