It is realized in an industrial corporation which conducts “Design, Research & Development and organizational” activities in its structure for minimum 20 workdays during summer vacation. Students also observe organizational functioning and management activities in the corporation and report the performed activities according to a format determined by Mechanical Engineering Department. The language of the report is Turkish and it is English for foreign students and/or the activities performed abroad. (This is a “Pass/Fail” type of activity and achievement will not be evaluated by letter grades.)
