Information Systems Engineering Program is a dual-diploma program that is an undergraduate program in which students spend half of their education at a campus of the State University of New York (SUNY) and half at Istanbul Technical University. The program received the 2007 Heiskell Award for International Exchange Partnerships by the Institute of International Education, one of the world’s leading international education organizations which administers such programs as Fulbright and the Humphrey Fellowships.

Istanbul Technical University is one of the world’s oldest technical universities with a long history of 250 years. ITU is a reputable institution known for its history, science, technology, art and sport achievements over the period of 242 years. It is a research centre connecting the past to the present and designing projects for the future. ITU, that has presented numerous scientific and technological developments, was the first to introduce novelties and unique achievements, provides academic learning being one of the oldest and most prominent technical universities in the world.

Computer Engineering and Information Systems Engineering education in Istanbul Technical University started in 1980 as a program under the Department of Control and Computer Engineering Department. In order to keep up with the contemporary developments, Computer Engineering and Information Systems Engineering were reshaped as separate departments under the same faculty. All related programs and departments were transferred to the new Faculty of Computer and Informatics Engineering in 2010.

A world-class institution, Binghamton University offers students a broad, interdisciplinary education with an international perspective and one of the most vibrant research programs in the nation.
