Sürmene Higher School of Marine Sciences and Technology was founded in 1982. However, education and other activities started in 1984 with two academic departments named Marine Sciences and Marine Technology Engineering. Two years later the two departments came together to form the Department of Fisheries Technology Engineering. The name of the Sürmene Higher School of Marine Science and Technology was changed as the Faculty of Marine Sciences in 1992 and moved to its current campus in Sürmene, Trabzon.
The Department of Fisheries Technology Engineering is committed to addressing the educational and research needs to ensure sustainable management of the diverse fisheries resources. Main research activities involve fisheries management, aquaculture, food processing and marketing, aquatic toxicology, molecular biology, oceanography, marine pollution, marine ecology, fish diseases and aquatic sciences.
The department also offers master and doctoral programs.
