Dr. Aytac Ugur YERDEN graduated from Marmara University, Faculty of Technical Education, Electrical Education and Bursa Technical University, Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Electrical-Electronics Engineering undergraduate programs. He completed his master's degree in Electrical Education at Marmara University, Institute of Science, and his PhD in Mechatronics Engineering at Marmara University, Institute of Science. He was awarded the title of Lecturer in 2014 and Asst. Prof. Dr. in 2020. He was at HAW-Hamburg University in Germany to complete his master's thesis in 2007-2008. Dr. Yerden worked as an exam and system coordinator at the Distance Education Application Research Center at Marmara University between 2012-2014, and served as a lecturer, program head and department head at the Department of Electrical and Energy at Istanbul Gedik University Vocational School between 2014-2020. In 2011, he took part in the Internet Entrepreneurship and E-Commerce Workshop "The Stars Of The East" and the European Union Project on Gaining Visibility with Computers. In 2022-2023, he worked as the project coordinator in the Sanal Ark project, which covers augmented reality, virtual reality, distance education and remote access laboratory systems from today's technologies supported by the 2021 Innovative Istanbul Financial Support Program of the Istanbul Development Agency, and ensured its successful completion. Dr. Yerden, who has advised numerous master's and doctoral theses in the fields of Electrical-Electronics, Artificial Intelligence, Mechatronics and Occupational Health and Safety, has many researches, projects and publications in the fields of renewable energy, robot vision, unmanned aerial vehicles, virtual reality, augmented reality, industry 5.0, metaverse and cyber security.
After working as a main propulsion officer and chief engineer on ships in the Turkish Naval Forces and Coast Guard, he was a faculty member and department head at the Naval Academy Mechanical Engineering Department. He currently heads the Mechanical Engineering Department at Istanbul Gedik University and serves as a technical mentor in the NATO DIANA program.
Dr. Sulukan's areas of interest are ship propulsion systems, energy technologies, and energy technology system analysis and modeling. He teaches thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, thermal system design, energy system analysis and modeling, and energy decision support tools and continues his research in the field of green transition.
