The Information Systems Engineering program aims to meet the demand for well-qualified human resource in the 21st century which is named the Information Era. The Electronic and Computer Engineering programs lead to expertise in the electronics and computer hardware and software respectively. The program covers theory and its application in information and its gathering, computing, storage, management, communication, modeling and evaluation. The program is built around the established foundations of Electronic Engineering which includes strong basic sciences, mathematics, signals and systems, signal processing, multimedia, electronics, communications and computers fields.

The Information Systems Engineering has emerged as an engineering branch on the basis of information sciences, technology and systems. In addition to the theoretical foundations, application of the integrated systems for the information processing is covered. The principal aim in the Information Systems Engineering program is to educate and train engineers for the industry and the academia.   

The Information Systems Engineering Program is planned as the second program in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department where both programs benefit from the same excellent academic and technological infrastructure which includes:  

•  well qualified academic staff members (8 Professors, 5 Associate Professors and 5 Assistant Professors)

• a highly developed, updated and well established curriculum

• common courses with the Electrical and Electronic Engineering program which is  “substantially equivalent” [by ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology)] to similar programs in the USA.

• 10 classrooms equipped with multimedia presentation facilities, one modern amphitheater, one library, 10 general laboratories and 7 computer labs

• a modern building which houses student clubs and provides diverse opportunities

• Information Technologies Research and Development Center, Technology Development Center, Advanced Technologies Research and Development Institute and PROMER (Student Project Development Center) are located in the same building providing multi-disciplinary interaction.

The teaching in the Information Systems Engineering program is practiced in modern classrooms where technological facilities are used to allow efficient interaction between students and instructors. These technological facilities include well-equipped laboratories, multimedia equipped computer laboratories/classrooms, and courses with Internet based course web pages. Students are continuously assessed in the program, and every student in the department is assigned an instructor who serves as the academic advisor. Additionally, instructor-student interaction is kept at a high level outside the classrooms. Every student is expected to complete a 40 working day summer training program besides his/her course load in order to get the Bachelor of Science degree. Students attending the summer training gain experience and many of them are employed by the same companies after their graduation through personal contacts established during the summer training period. Additionally, every student has to complete a final year capstone graduation project.
