Universities are the center of science, advancement, and technology. The education institutions that cannot meet the current age requirements do not create a change as well; they do not perceive the need for change. Piri Reis University pushes the limits of knowledge with global awareness principles and with its strong prominent academic staff and students.
Our students have world integrated, international educational opportunities using the ERASMUS partnerships we have with critical European universities. We have received students from foreign countries and have sent our students abroad for the past seven years.
Being one of the leading institutions in maritime, not only in Turkey but also in the world, is our primary goal. Piri Reis University has been the center of innovations and differences in maritime education since its establishment. We have installed advanced technology simulators to offer higher education quality; we currently have 17 multipurpose simulation centers. Our students learn how to navigate a ship competently in these injury-free and controlled centers. Our training pool equipped with advanced technology is unique to Turkey. We can instantly create all kinds of unfavorable weather and sea conditions in our pool with remote control.
Today, we have student trainees and graduates on duty in several parts of the world. We have put the Ankara Ship back into service for our students following renovations and renewals. Every year, about 200 of our students do their two-month training on the Piri Reis University ship. The ship visits many ports in the Marmara, Aegean, Mediterranean, and the Black Sea regions.
We educate competent and qualified engineers through student-centered and project-based education programs implemented by the Engineering Faculty. Our students have already started working for prominent companies. We provide our students with the education necessary for our times, thanks to the computer-aided design laboratories we have in our school, where advanced technology engineering software is used. Our students can turn their theoretical education into practice and find a job quickly with the efficient university-industry cooperation we are currently experiencing.
The faculty of economics and administrative sciences in our university has a reliable and renowned academic staff. We can say that we have brought critically renowned professionals from the finance sector to our university. We aim at bringing our students together with the business world by making educational agreements with reputable institutions. Apart from having mainly finance and commerce departments, the "Management Information Systems" department has been established this year, due to the information and communication sector being the pioneer of rapid change and transformation in the world today. We intend to educate individuals who can efficiently improve and utilize their technical and strategic thinking skills in the business world with this program.
We provide 80% of our students with various rates of scholarships. Besides, we provide convenience for our students who cannot get scholarships through the "Deferred Tuition Payment System" developed by our university.
To provide world class, quality education and training, conduct research, and create synergy between vocational and academic education in an environment of global competition. To educate young people equipped with the vocational and communication skills required in the competitive, global environment of the 21st century, who are correctly trained and capable of operating in any corner of the world.
We also aim to be a pacesetting university that develops national and international projects directly contributing to our fellow people's lives and implements modern educational programs that are supported by a certain number of other social, cultural, and human sciences.
