One strategic goal of the our school is to develop innovation and technical experimentation, and, to this purpose, to create and reinforce partnerships with educational and non-educational structures in Turkey and abroad.
Our school has previously participated in national level robotics and technology competitions, but it is aimed to increase our international experience in this field.
