ITU Geological Engineering Club

ITU Geological Engineering Club was established in 1994 within the Faculty of Mining in order to introduce Geological Engineering, to popularize geology and to reach large masses. In 2003, it joined the Culture and Art Union. Through the Geological Engineering Club, students are able to communicate more easily with their lecturers and deans. With the trips and seminars organized, it is aimed for the students of the department to dialogue with each other and to apply the learned theoretical knowledge by the students in practice. To provide student communication with the Chamber of Geological Engineers; providing internship opportunities to students by contacting geology firms; sharing lecture notes, books and information; organizing social and cultural trips; organizing professional panels and career days, ceramics and guitar courses are among the activities of the club. In addition to these, it continues its online activities without slowing down in order to bring the club students together in the distance education process and to eliminate the problems of the students who are new to the department to get used to the school. It increases the knowledge and experience of Geological Engineering students with regular weekly academic and industry-related online interviews, documentary screenings, the 'Takeover' event where the Instagram page was left to someone who graduated from the department to tell her/his story, and a mentoring program.
