It is realized in an industrial corporation which conducts mechatronics engineering applications like “manufacturing and assembly processes” in its structure for minimum 20 workdays during summer vacation. Students report the activities performed in corporation according to a format determined by Mechanical Engineering Department. The language of the report is Turkish. Foreign students and/or the activities performed abroad, the language of training report is English. This is a Pass/Fail type of activity and students will not be given a letter grade.

It is realized in an industrial corporation which conducts “Design, Research & Development and organizational” activities in its structure for minimum 20 workdays during summer vacation. Students also observe organizational functioning and management activities in the corporation and report the performed activities according to a format determined by Mechanical Engineering Department. The language of the report is Turkish and it is English for foreign students and/or the activities performed abroad. (This is a “Pass/Fail” type of activity and achievement will not be evaluated by letter grades.)

The basic theories in Ethics (the Philosophy of Morality). The practical implications of these theories in particular professions and areas such as engineering, medicine, pharmacology, genetics, technological innovation, artificial intelligence and robotology, management, marketing, international relations, public services, media and law. The meaning and significance of virtue and values. Moral principles within particular professions and their foundation in Ethics.
