(*) The "Electronics Engineering", "Computer
Science and Engineering", and "Mechatronics" programs are
currently structured as sub fields of the "Electronics
Engineering and Computer Science" graduate program. An application has
been filed with YOK [The Turkish Council of Higher Education] for the
launching of these sub fields as separate graduate programs, as of the
2006-2007 academic year.
