We provide practical training to our students with 27 research and practice laboratories in the faculty building and a one research vessel. We have a scientific museum which is used to archive Turkey's fish ecosystem samples and information on site. Our faculty encompasses a wide range of activities including education facilities and scientific researches. Scientific researches contribute to both private sector and literature.
