Electrical and Electronics Engineering is one of the most important driving forces of technological developments that form the basis of many sectors in the modern world and are of vital importance. Electrical and Electronics Engineering in Turkey is a discipline that has great importance in many sectors. The relevant sectors are listed below.

Energy Sector: Turkey is a rapidly growing country in terms of energy production and distribution. Electrical and electronics engineers play a critical role in the planning, design, and management of energy systems. In order to meet Turkey's energy needs, investments in renewable energy sources are increasing, and there is a great need for engineering specialists in this field.

Defense and Aerospace Industry: Turkey's defense and aerospace sector has gained great momentum in recent years. Electrical and electronics engineers make significant contributions to defense and aerospace projects by working in areas such as the design of military electronic systems, communication systems, and radar and sensor technologies.

Telecommunications: Turkey has an extensive telecommunications infrastructure and a constantly developing communications sector. Electrical and Electronics Engineers specialize in the design, installation, and management of telecommunications networks. The development and dissemination of telecommunication technologies such as mobile communication, broadband internet, and fiber optic networks increase the demand for engineering specialists.

Automotive Industry: Turkey has an important position in the automotive industry. Electrical and Electronics Engineers work in areas such as the design of electronically controlled systems in the automotive sector, in-vehicle communication and security systems, and electric and autonomous vehicle technologies. The rapid change in automotive technologies allows engineers to play an active role in the development of new-generation vehicles and advanced driving assistance systems.

Industrial Control and Automation: Turkey's industrial sector has a great need for electrical and electronics engineers to increase the automation and efficiency of production processes. Engineering specialists actively work in areas such as the design of industrial control systems, factory automation, robotic systems, and sensor technologies. This contributes to making production processes more efficient, safe, and sustainable.

Together with the undergraduate education provided at our faculty, the master's program of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, opened as of 2023, aims to train electrical and electronics engineers who have gained expertise in the fields of electrical and electronics, mechanical and computer systems technologies, can control and direct the design process, can take and use the information needed in related fields, and, in particular, transfer this information to the product development process.

The master's program in Electrical and Electronics Engineering with thesis offers students the opportunity to develop their scientific research abilities. This program allows students to discover new knowledge in the field of electrical and electronics engineering and contribute to scientific and technological progress.

Students will be provided with in-depth knowledge and expertise in the field of electrical and electronics engineering. Students have the opportunity to specialize in a specific topic by conducting research, which prepares them for advanced positions in the industry.

The master's program with thesis offers students the opportunity to conduct independent research and develop innovative solutions. This program helps students develop analytical thinking, problem-solving, and creative thinking skills.

The master's program with thesis offers students the opportunity to make a career in the academic world. This program allows students to transfer to a doctoral program by conducting research at the postgraduate level. It also offers the opportunity to work as a lecturer or researcher in academic institutions.

Electrical and electronics engineering has great importance in many sectors. The master's program with thesis offers students the opportunity to work in industrial research and development departments. Thanks to this program, students have the knowledge and skills to be able to lead innovations in the sector and obtain competitive business opportunities.

In order for the quality of education and research to grow and develop with an increasing trend, there is naturally a need for more research staff. With the master's program of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, which is planned to be opened by the research assistant staff of the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department, it will contribute to the education of the teaching staff needed by our country and accelerate the development process by channeling themselves to different areas without the need for outside. In addition, it is planned that the study topics of the graduate theses that will be conducted within the scope of our graduate program of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, which we aim to open, will be directed to applicable projects within the framework of industrial cooperation, on topics that contribute to the interests of the country, generate added value, and meet a specific concrete need. Thus, specializations will be provided for the needs in our country in certain concrete areas.

Student Admission Conditions and Evaluation

Students are accepted to master's degree programs by evaluating their ALES score, undergraduate graduation grade, science exam, interview, and foreign language score. When evaluating the scores obtained in ALES, the standard score type of the applied program is taken as a basis. It is envisaged that a science exam and an interview will be conducted in the application for master's degree programs in Electrical and Electronics Engineering (Turkish) with thesis. In this case, the application evaluation will take place as follows.

Candidates with a total of 50% of the ALES score, 20% of the undergraduate GPA, 10% of the grade obtained in the science exam or interview, and 20% of the foreign language score above 50 points are ranked.

The grade taken in the science exam and the average of the grade taken in the interview are taken as a basis.

Upon admission, the interview is conducted by a jury consisting of three or five faculty members, one of whom is the head of the department working in the relevant program, to be determined by the board of directors of the relevant institute. The chairman of the jury is the chairman of the relevant department. During the interview, the candidate's basic knowledge of the field, interest in academic work, and level of orientation are evaluated. As a result of this evaluation, the written/test method can be used in addition to the oral stage in terms of the interview score to be determined out of 100.

A candidate who does not take an interview or science exam will be excluded from the evaluation and will not be accepted to the program.

The application results are announced on the web page of the relevant institute on the Internet. Registrations are made by the Student Affairs Department on the dates announced on the institute's web page.

The general conditions required for admission of students to graduate programs at our university are explained in the Malatya Turgut Özal University Graduate Education and Training Regulations. (Official Gazette, April 7, 2019, Issue: 30378)
