GENERAL INFORMATION :

The increasing and multi-dimensional interest both in inland and abroad gave rise to the department of Environmental Engineering to be founded in the year 1991, within the body of Engineering and Architectural Faculty, to meet the environmental problems of Bursa. The laboratory building of our department, having 800 square meters field, provided education at the beginning of the 1994-1999 academic teaching year. In this building 7 laboratories are located with the aim of both educational activities and research. The department consists of two major chairs : Environmental Sciences and Environmental Technology. The undergraduate program in our curriculum is carried out by our permanent staff and some other part time staff from the other faculties, totally 3 professors, 4 associate professors, 5 assistant professors, 6 lecturers, 7 instructors and 3 other teaching personal. Now, in our department, 3 permanent professor, 2 permanent associate professor, 3 permanent assistant professors, 2 instructors and 16 research assistants are in change of the academic purpose. And from the other teaching staff of our department, 13 of them are environmental engineers or the ones having masters degree in environmental engineering; and 1 is a biologist, 1 is a chemist and another one is an expert in the soil chemistry. The undergraduate students of our department are totally 130. Since the spring term of the 1998-99 academic year, totally 78 students have graduated. In our department, post graduate study program was started in the 1994-95 academic year. At the moment, we have got 34 post graduate students and 14 student in the doctoral studies.

RESEARCH INTERESTS AND FACILITIES :

The Environmental Engineering Department, which has been established in the constitution of Engineering and Architecture Faculty in 1991 with 26 teaching staff, carries on undergraduate and graduate education to solve the environmental problems of Bursa city with increasing national and international interest in environmental issues.

 

Department Laboratory:
