History of our Department
Origins of the Department of Electrical Engineering can be traced back to the Mechanical and Electrical Institute of University of Istanbul, Faculty of Science in 1926. The department was officialy established in 1934 and Electrical Muhabere Department came into existence with the set up of a Muhabere Department in 1937. When Istanbul Engineering College was transformed to the Istanbul Technical University in 1944, the department was renamed as Faculty of Electricity. Faculty of Electricity was officialy established in June 15, 1946 with the passing of "Universities Act". There were two subdivisions within the faculty: High Current and Low Current. Today's Department of Electrical Engineering is rooted to the high current division. There were five fields of study in the department in 1945. These were
