Dear Students,
First and foremost, I wish that your university experience brings you good health, happiness, and knowledge. I hope that the connection we establish with you on the first day you join our university will continue to grow and strengthen even after you graduate.
Unlike the schools you have attended in the past, you will meet friends from various cities who have come here for their education. This diverse cultural experience will broaden your perspective.
Remember that your time here is about uncovering your potential and becoming successful individuals. Throughout your journey, you will come across opportunities that will expand your horizons, enhance your knowledge and skills, and help you grow socially and culturally.
Keep in mind that this phase is not just about gaining academic knowledge, but also about building your social and cultural awareness. Stay resilient and persistent in the face of challenges. We are all here to learn and evolve together; your questions, suggestions, and contributions are highly valuable.
Moreover, we recommend not only focusing on the education provided by the university, but also participating in extracurricular activities that will aid in your personal growth and serve as hobbies. We are in a time of great change, and regardless of your field of study, I urge you to stay informed about current world events. Understanding global developments and interpreting new data requires continuous self-education. Our university and faculty will support you in this journey, but remember that in today's world, education extends beyond the classroom, and your choices also play a significant role in your learning.
Fitting millions of circuit elements into an area the size of a fingernail, and iron masses weighing tons flying in the sky to transport passengers and cargo is thanks to the perfection of the human brain. The greatest gift given to you is your mind, and each individual is born into this world with a unique talent. Train and develop your mind and talents to reach your true potential. Make an effort for this and strive to be a versatile person.
Read a lot of books and think about what you have learned.
Have an international identity, if you have the means, travel to other countries and observe. Make friends from different countries.
Be individuals who not only know information, but also question and interpret it.
Be honest and conscientious individuals so that you can benefit society and our country.
You are our tomorrows. Wishing you to leave a mark on beautiful works for our country and our world.
