Student Outcomes

Targeted outcomes of the METU Geological Engineering Program of the Faculty of Engineering are listed below:

• an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics;
• an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors;
• an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences;
• an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts;
