Technical Staff Managing the Mobile Systems of the Future : Unmanned Vehicle Technician

The Unmanned Vehicle Technician program is designed for students who want to specialize in remote control, maintenance and system integration of land, air and sea vehicles. The program offers both practical and theoretical training, covering topics such as sensor technologies, communication systems and basic software-hardware integration.The Frontend Engineer program offers a comprehensive and hands-on technical training for individuals who want to develop user-oriented, aesthetic and high-performance web interfaces. Participants gain the competence to develop professional-level projects with modern frontend technologies, while gaining the practical skills needed in the industry.

About The Unmanned Vehicle Technician

Unmanned Vehicle Technician is a training program that focuses on rapidly developing unmanned system technologies. Focusing on modern technologies such as drones, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), maritime vehicles (USVs) and autonomous mobile systems, this program covers electronic hardware, remote control systems, GPS-based navigation, sensor integration, communication protocols and basic artificial intelligence-assisted guidance systems.

 

Students receive training based on real scenarios encountered in both civilian and defense industries. They are equipped with practical applications such as flight simulations, remote driving systems, fault diagnosis, maintenance and system calibration.

At the end of the program, students graduate as technical personnel who can maintain and control the units integrated into autonomous systems, understand the hardware-software relationship and take an active role in the field. This field plays a critical role in many sectors such as defense industry, logistics, agricultural technologies, disaster management and urban mobility.
