PROGRAM SPECIFICATIONS
The program in Information Technologies (IT) is conducted in English and has thesis & non-thesis options. The program can be completed in at least 3 semesters. The main aim of the program is to teach how to design and apply basic research, applied research and development studies in the field of IT and develop various skills in the participants.
PROGRAM PURPOSE
The potential candidates are those who work or would like to work in IT sector. The program is structured for those who do not have any IT background with basic courses and for also those who has various levels of IT background with necessary advanced level courses, project topics and thesis. The IT Program will enable the potential candidates to:
- Create a background on hardware, software development and computer Networks, by the help of courses providing basic IT infrastructure
- Specialize on an IT related area with courses directly related to the certain area which are supported by current technological applications.
- Take various courses from other programs (Computer Engineering, Engineering Management, Business Administration, etc.) that would help further specialization and Professional needs.
- Conduct academic studies for those who can provide necessary conditions, are successful in and enthusiastic about academic work
- Complete a project on a specialization area and take more courses with the non-thesis option.
- Contribute to their professional careers and workplaces by doing thesis or a projects on the industrial problems they come across in their work life and discuss about them with academicians and professionals in the area.
PROGRAM STRUCTURE
IT program provides a high quality educational opportunity with its dynamic and modular structure to those new graduates with an undergraduate degree on any area and those who yet work in IT related fields but want to gain an added value with an academically strengthened specialization. The program provides curriculum modules on four different IT related specialization areas to those coming from different backgrounds so that the students could have the opportunity to combine academic formation with various contemporary technological developments such as software, project, product development, IT management, IT hardware and software support, distance learning and e-learning. The specialization areas are as follows:
- Management Information Systems Specialization Area (MIS): This specialization area aims those who work on projects that rely on IT and computerization in the fields of human resources, finance, marketing, public relations etc.
- Networks and System Administration Specialization Area (NSA): This specialization area is suitable for those who want to develop themselves in the fields of computer networks, network management, computer system setup.
- Software Technologies Specialization Area (ST): This specialization area aims those who want to develop computer applications, take part in software design projects and learn about the current technologies in software development.
- Computer and Education Technologies Specialization Area (CET): In education, ICT usage is vitally important to develop some technology based environments and tools. Such as E-learning, distance education, instructional design of the content, content development and evaluation are important education related ICT fields to support education on online and on Internet. So this specialization area aims to provide information and instruction on the latest technologies to those who work in the field of education and those who use IT in education.
- Business Intelligence Specialization Area (BI): Business Intelligence specialty area is related with skills, technologies, and applications to collect the data and by using OLAP, analytics, data mining, business performance management, benchmarking, text mining, and predictive analytics methods to generate valuable konowledge for Businesses. Courses of BI module try to handle real life applications such as campaign planning, churn management and fraud detection activites.

Service Oriented Architectures
The SOA overview course begins with an introduction to what business process and information technology IT architecture are and what functions business process an IT architects perform. The course then describes the concepts of service orientation to a business process or information technology. Components of Service Oriented Architecture are described including and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), and service connection methods such as Extensible Markup Language. Additionally, concepts such as Component Business Modeling (CBM), Business Process Execution Language (BPEL), and Web Services Description Language (WSDL the XML-based language which provides the model for describing Web Services) are also introduced. The reusability of services, the primary goal of SOA, emerges as a common theme through supporting sessions in SOA tools, the SOA Lifecycle, SOA Standards, and SOA Reference Architectures. Prerequisites for the SOA overview course are a thorough understanding of IT categories and elements including database, software, middleware, and network, familiarity with IT services, business processes and techniques, and some understanding of project management. The SOA overview course is multi-disciplinary, which bridges between business, business management, and technology.
