A courtesy visit to our university was made by David Bohmert, Secretary General of the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research (CESAER), of which ITU is a member.

Istanbul Technical University (ITU) continues to develop international collaborations. The CESAER Association (Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research), which was established in Belgium in 1990 to guide European policy makers and funders in developing the necessary policies and resources for research, education and innovation, includes 58 universities from the European continent. 

Representing our university, which is always in close communication with international partners, our Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Lütfiye Durak Ata accompanied David Bohmert, Secretary General of the CESAER Union, on his visits. After the Istanbul Technical University presentation held at our Rectorate, ITU Aviation and Space and National Membrane Technologies Application-Research Centers were visited. The delegation continued its program by making examinations at ITU Çekirdek Kuluçka Center, and then information was shared about the projects at ITU ARI Teknokent. 

Offering his thanks for the Turkish hospitality, Bohmert stated that they would like to host our university next time.
