Head of Department

Civil Engineering is one of the earliest branches of engineering in the world and it is involved in the construction works as well as the basic requirements of people such as housing and transportation, in addition with environmentally friendly water supply and waste water removal. In addition, intensive research and development activities are being carried out in order to popularize the smart transportation systems (ITS) by using the developing technology to decrease traffic jam and to increase transportation comfort due to the increase in population and vehicle ownership.
 

With the spread of Internet technology, smart homes, smart roads, smart vehicles and self-driving cars will continue to have a larger presence in our lives. Civil engineers closely monitor current and developing technologies. One of the most important reasons to prefer Civil Engineering is the wide range of its working area and it will continue to serve as long as human beings exist. 
 

Civil Engineering Department in Istanbul Gelisim University was established in 2011 and had its first graduates in 2015.  Our graduates are employed in both public and private sectors. In addition, the department offers master's and doctoral programs. In the civil engineering department, there are construction materials, hydraulic and geotechnical laboratories for students and R & D studies.  We continue to improve our laboratories on a project basis.  R & D projects are carried out in coordination with other departments.  As the Department of Civil Engineering in Istanbul Gelisim University, we put a great effort to equip our students with the latest technology both for today and for future.
 

Training provided at civil engineering department will improve continuously by considering the requests from students, advisory board and our graduates.
