  2. HISTORYFoundation Robert College • Robert College, founded by Dr. Cyrus Hamlin and Mr. Christopher Rheinlander Robert in 1863, was the first American institution of higher learning outside the United States. • Transition to Boğaziçi University in 1971 • Faculty of Engineering was established in 1912 • Civil Engineering CE (1912) • Electrical Engineering EE (1912) • Mechanical Engineering ME (1912) • Chemical EngineeringChE (1958) • Industrial Engineering IE (1973) • Computer Engineering CmpE (1981)

  3. Faculty of Engineering The mission of the BU Facultyof Engineering is to educate individuals for careers of leadership and innovation in industry, government and educational institutions; to expand the engineering knowledge base through original research; to contribute through professional services towards more prosperous and sustainable society. The vision of the BU Faculty of Engineering is to continue to employ the best faculty and to admit the best students in Turkey with the aim of becoming one of the top engineering schools in the world in the areas of education, research and technology development.

  4. Engineering Degrees Granted

  5. High Standards • ACCORDANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS… Examined by European University Association (EUA) in 1999, academic and administrative perfection of Boğaziçi University has been approved by EUA. • ENGINEERING FACULTY THAT HAS BEEN PROVED TO BE IN WORLD STANDARDS... After ABET’s (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) evaluation on Boğaziçi University Engineering Faculty in 1997, 2004, and 2009 contents and the level of the programs in the faculty were shown to be equivalent to the universities in USA and all departments were found to be in accordance with ABET standards.
