Faculty of Fisheries is a high educational institution with dynamic, innovative, young staff and also a most-preferred faculty in Turkey. The Faculty trains both undergraduate and graduate students for an engineering career in fisheries and aquatic sciences. In our faculty, the educational and teaching activities are maintained by the competent staff of our departments (Marine Biology, Freshwater Biology, Aquaculture, Fish Disease, Fisheries Technology, and Seafood Processing Technology). Furthermore, we have two research units (Gökçeada Marine Research Unit and Sapanca Freshwater Research Unit) and also a well-equipped research vessel (Yunus S R/V). For our experimentations and researches, these facilities are currently being utilized.  In our hatchery system in Sapanca Research Unit, the fry production has reached in its highest level for the last ten years: we have produced 1 million fries for the years 2006-2007.

Our well-equipped research vessel has been maintaining the researches concerning the fishing resources and the pollution in national and international waters. Our mission is to train the engineers and specialists to be responsible for sustainable fisheries and protecting living resources, and also to pioneer the fisheries sector and the society. On the other hand, our vision is to become a magnet in the fisheries and aquatic sciences for both national and international levels.
