Bachelor in Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering

Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering focuses on building systems that collect, process, and learn from large volumes of data. Typical coursework includes programming, data structures, machine learning, statistics, database systems, and data pipeline design, alongside mathematics such as linear algebra and probability theory. Students learn to build and evaluate machine learning models, design systems for storing and processing large datasets, and apply data-driven methods to problems in areas such as image recognition, natural language processing, and predictive analytics. Project-based coursework often involves working with real datasets and building end-to-end data processing and modeling pipelines. Graduates pursue careers as data engineers, machine learning engineers, data scientists, and AI developers across technology, finance, and healthcare sectors, and many continue into graduate study in computer science, data science, or artificial intelligence. This 4 year bachelor's program is offered by Yıldız Technical University in İstanbul, Turkey, with instruction in English, connecting graduates to the largely English-language research and tooling used in the field. İstanbul's growing technology sector provides opportunities for internships and applied projects with companies working on data and AI systems. Over four years, students typically progress from foundational programming and mathematics courses to specialized machine learning and data engineering coursework, often supported by capstone projects. The program is designed to prepare graduates for technical roles building and maintaining data-driven and AI-powered systems.
