Artificial intelligence research began academically in the 1950s and has gained significant momentum today. Artificial intelligence is a field of science that aims to enable machines to perform every behavior that humans can do. In short, designing machines that can produce intelligent solutions to problems has been an area that humans have dreamed of for centuries. Therefore, an algorithm must be developed that can produce solutions to every problem. Although the science of artificial intelligence initially developed based on a logical foundation, over time it was seen that it could not produce solutions to problems. In this situation, in order to make machines behave like humans, the learning model of human behavior began to be imitated. Thus, data-based artificial intelligence began to develop rapidly. The use of large data sets by artificial intelligence and the need to interpret them using methods from the science of statistics have led to the merging of these two sciences.
Our department was established in 1993 within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences as the Department of Statistics and Computer Sciences with the goal mentioned above. In the Fall Semester of the 1994-1995 academic year, it started accepting students. Our department, which offers its successful students the opportunity to benefit from minor and double major programs, also conducts student exchange programs with foreign universities within the scope of the Erasmus program and with domestic universities within the scope of the Farabi program. Our department also offers graduate education with Master's and Doctorate programs within the Institute of Science.
Rapidly developing information and communication technologies are leading to significant changes in societies. Adapting to and directing these changes are urgent issues concerning the use and management of information. The need for sufficient and well-trained human resources to solve these problems in our country is increasing day by day. In this context, one of our primary goals is to ensure that our students embrace the future and become sought-after employees. While achieving this goal, we aim to push all boundaries to develop individuals who are beneficial to our country, personally developed, self-confident, and strong in social relations.
As a department, our well-trained young and dynamic staff conducts both academic and project-based studies. Within these studies, we aim to spark a flame in our students' horizons by encouraging them to actively participate.
The objectives of our course content are to ensure that our graduates acquire the following skills:
Our students maintain their connections and organize events with the Computer Science Student Club. For more information about the club and to get in touch, click here.
The Department of Computer Science consists of an academic staff of 19, including 3 Professors, 2 Associate Professors, 9 Assistant Professors, and 5 Research Assistants.
An internship is mandatory for the Department of Computer Science. Students can do internships during the summer periods from the end of their first year until they graduate.
Student exchange programs at our university are managed by the Exchange Programs Coordination Office of the International Relations Office. Exchange programs provide our students with the opportunity to receive education and do internships both domestically and abroad. The Exchange Programs Coordination Office includes:

In our university, which holds the status of a Research University, our department provides interdisciplinary research and application opportunities that allow our students to reinforce the theoretical knowledge they acquire during their education with practical experience.
Our department has a total of 6 classrooms, 2 of which are computer laboratories.
The fields of employment for graduates of the Computer Science Department are quite broad. When looking at the backgrounds of scientists involved in artificial intelligence, it is often seen that they are computer scientists. Therefore, our graduates can find a place wherever computers and, consequently, artificial intelligence are present. The opportunities for finding a job immediately after graduation or even before graduation are quite high.
Our students, who will become part of the field of artificial intelligence, one of today's most important topics, can continue their education at the postgraduate level, either domestically or internationally.
Our graduates can find jobs in private companies, government institutions, and almost all sectors, including health and law. In addition to this, as they will graduate as advanced software developers, they can start their own companies and develop their own projects to earn money.
Additionally, our students can receive pedagogical formation training and become teachers.
