History
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Hacettepe University was established in 1992. In 2005, the Department launched Türkiye’s first undergraduate program in Automotive Engineering, which admitted its first cohort of students that same year. Graduate programs in Mechanical Engineering followed, with the Master of Science (M.S.) program beginning in Spring 2009 and the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) program in Fall 2015.
In 2018, the Department discontinued new admissions to the Automotive Engineering undergraduate program. In the same academic year (2018–2019), the Department admitted the first cohort of students to its undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering.
