Industrial Engineering Department is one of the seven departments in the Engineering and Architecture Faculty and carries on its research and education activities in its own building. The department building consists of 7 classrooms, a conference hall, 3 laboratories, 14 staff offices, a meeting room and 3 stock rooms.

Ergonomics, manufacturing-automation and computer laboratory and the offices of the department chair, academic stuff and secretary lie on the 3^rd floor of the building. All the classrooms exist on the 1^st and the 2^nd floor and the conference hall on the 2^nd floor. Two classrooms can provide sufficient space up to 60 audiences and the total amount of the class capacities is 342 individuals. In order to provide courses that are appropriate for the power point presentations, one of these classes has been specially established and equipped with a computer and a data show projector. In addition there is an overhead projector available.

Each department member has an office with internet connection and the stuff (excluding assistants) has up-to-date computers in their rooms that are provided by the department. A meeting room has arranged for 15 persons and equipped with a computer, a printer, a data show projector and a copier that can be used by staff members.

            The computer laboratory is equipped with 19 computers, all connected to the internet and loaded with necessary software that is essential for industrial engineering research topics. Five different courses require computational applications and the department’s computer laboratory is sufficient enough with its hardware and software capabilities. The computer laboratory is open between 08:45-17:30 and all the computers are available for industrial engineering students thus the students may use the necessary software and search the information they required through the academic search engines that are provided by the university library.

            Two research laboratories (ergonomics and manufacturing-automation) were established to carry on research activities and undergraduate courses. A one hour/week manufacturing laboratory is obligatory for the “Computer Integrated Manufacturing” course, and three hours/week industrial engineering laboratory course consists of manufacturing and ergonomics topics: CNC turning-milling, PLC, SPC, logic circuits, robotics, hearing, noise and vibration, visibility, walking machine and spinner applications are feasible with our laboratory capabilities.
