History

The Faculty of Mines was established March 1, 1953 in Istanbul. In its first years, the faculty was composed of mainly Turkish and German professors, and its program was similar to those days' famous mining schools such as RWTH Aachen University, Clausthal University of Technology then in West Germany and Freiberg University of Mining and Technology in East Germany. The Faculty of Mines accepted its first students in 1953 with a faculty of eleven scientists.^[4]
