History
Hacettepe Vocational School, Mechanical Program; was established on March 29, 2012, with the decision numbered 2012-76 by the Hacettepe University Senate. The program is offered in a dual education format and provides associate degree education for a total of 6 terms over 2 years. Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded an associate degree in "Mechanical Program" and the title of "Technician". Graduates of the mechanical program have become highly sought-after and the most employed professionals in this field, due to the rising influence of the manufacturing sector and the significant role of CNC machines and CAD-CAM programs in modern manufacturing.

In the industry, they can take on roles in areas such as lathe and milling technicians, CNC programming, CAD-CAM programming, technical drafting, quality control, heat treatment, control and automation, technical service, and promotion. Graduates who have acquired sufficient knowledge and experience can also establish their own businesses with an entrepreneurial spirit. After successfully completing the Mechanical Program, our students, upon successful completion of the Vertical Transfer Exam conducted by the Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM), can transfer to departments such as Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Materials Engineering, Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Energy Systems Engineering, Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering, Ship Machinery Engineering, Marine Machinery Operation Engineering, Ship and Marine Technology Engineering, and Agricultural Machinery and Technologies Engineering.
