General Information

The aim of the program is to train technical staff with the ability to apply more than the intended engineer and have general knowledge about construction. Construction Technology Program started education with regular education in 2007-2008 academic year and with secondary education in 2010-2011 academic year. The construction technicians; It constitutes the professional group working as technical staff in natural resources, transportation/highway, building departments and material testing laboratories of public or local administrations, as well as companies that are actively involved in building constructions such as dams, roads, airports, housing, etc. They play an important role as technical staff in the planning, project, construction and control stages of all buildings from highways, bridges, dams, airports, water supply/distribution systems and residences to commercial centers. In this context, a construction technician should be able to draw the necessary drawings in the preparation of architectural and static projects related to buildings, both by hand and with the help of package programs, in computer environment, to test building materials using tools, equipment and technical knowledge and skills, and to prepare detailed reports and evaluate the results. Our students will be able to extract and evaluate the topographic structure of the construction site; should have the knowledge and ability to use measuring instruments at a level to determine highway codes and directions. It is expected that our graduates will have sufficient theoretical and practical knowledge for making progress payment arrangements, preparation of construction site work plans, reliable construction of structures in accordance with the project, and studies related to other engineering technology by making the quantity and exploration processes related to the building.

Length of Programme & Number of Credits

2 Year - 120 ECTS

Feature & Definition

Students graduating from the Construction Technology program are employed in different private or public construction sectors (such as concrete plants, insulation and building materials production facilities, construction sites, architectural offices) in line with their qualifications. Construction Technicians: equipped with a sense of confidence to start and run their own business; They are graduated with the knowledge and skills to know the legislation related to project, structure, insurance, tax and health institutions and to perform the necessary bureaucratic procedures. Having the ability to work independently and make decisions within accuracy and ethical values ​​are important features for a construction technician. At the same time, he should have the qualifications to establish relations with the public as well as professional experts in his working life.
