Natural sciences aim to understand nature based on objective and measurable phenomena through experiments and observations. Scientific knowledge, derived from the synthesis of reason and observation, is consistent, objective, and open to critique. Since the early 20th century, the fields of science and mathematics have shaped our lives and the world, influencing technology and engineering on scales ranging from nano to macro. Studying in these fields means becoming part of a team capable of offering solutions with a strong perspective and analytical evaluation skills in globally significant matters. In today’s competitive and globalized environment, we expect you to take full advantage of the national and international collaboration opportunities offered by our University and Faculty. By embracing a culture of innovation and continuous development, and being equipped to adapt to the world, we anticipate you joining the professional world as individuals capable of creating new ideas and approaches.
