Overview
Earthquake Engineering from Bogazici University introduces you to a multi-phased process that ranges from earthquake source studies to seismic risk mitigation procedures. Earthquake response analysis of sites, structures and systems; and assessment of strong ground motion that emanates from an earthquake constitute the two main ingredients of the discipline. The emphasis of our academic activities are placed on various complementary fields:
Graduates with Earthquake Engineering from Bogazici University will gain knowledge in:
- Earthquake hazard and risk analysis
