Gebze Technical University (GTU) Bioengineering Department graduated its first graduates. Within the scope of the Bioengineering Day event, the students presented their graduation projects with oral and poster presentations.

Stating that they organized the event for the first time and wanted to make it traditional, Head of Bioengineering Department Prof. Dr. Muhammet UZUNTARLA spoke as follows in his opening speech; “Our aim in organizing this event is to enable our undergraduate students to explain their theses in such a synergetic environment and to share information. Another goal we want to achieve with the Bioengineering Day event is to bring together our esteemed students, who are now ready for graduation, with successful exemplary people from the industry and academia, and to let them share their career stories with you in a chat environment. In this context, Prof. Dr. Uğur SEZERMAN from Acıbadem University and Fikret Ceyhun ERTUĞRUL, a bioengineer from Nobel İlaç Company, will be with you.

In today's program, there will also be presentations by our students who are educated in industrial organizations within the scope of the industrial applications course. We find it extremely important that you benefit from the experience they share in these presentations. Finally, I would like to thank our university administration, Gebze, Darıca, and Çayırova municipalities, who supported us in carrying out such a beautiful event, Assoc. Prof. Baris BİNAY, Dr. Onur SERÇİNOĞLU, all of our faculty members and research assistants.”
