Dean's Message
Welcome to the Faculty of Computer and Information Technologies, Turkey's oldest and most well-established university, the fastest growing and rising under the roof of Istanbul University. In the field of informatics, which removes the borders of the countries, provides equal rights for all genders, races, beliefs and perspectives, and constantly advances the boundaries reached by the world and each of us in the journey of humanity, the journey of being human, intertwined with the sector, scientific norms and work discipline befit a research university. We say, "Let's write the future together," to our esteemed stakeholders.
The primary goals of our faculty, whose vision is to lead the way for philosophical and scientific transformation and change in the field of informatics, especially in Turkey, and in the world, by hosting long-term scientific studies, to accelerate the applicability of science and the scientific transformation of institutions, by raising qualified human resources and leading industrial projects that shape the IT sector.
"Computer Engineering", "Artificial Intelligence Engineering", "Software Engineering", "Cyber Security Engineering" and "Electronics Engineering" departments have been established and starting bachelors, masters and doctor levels with different perspectives in the Faculty.
As the faculty, High Quality is the main priority for all the high goals we set in all areas, especially high quality of academic staff, research opportunities, international connections, and students. In this sense, we keep our academic staff up-to-date and dynamic and in the highest standards available, keep highest standards in research and international cooperation, advance sector/industry relations and transform all from concept to reality.
