In-Club Project Teams

Our club aims for more than writing code: solving problems, designing system architecture and building products that work. We form our own technical teams for TÜBİTAK 2209-A/B undergraduate research projects and national hackathon competitions.

  • Technical mentoring from EVA Team and coordinators with industry experience
  • Support with TÜBİTAK 2209 applications, writing and documentation
  • 24–36 hour Ideathon & Protohack competition teams

Project Team Process

    Architecture & Documentation

    Design the problem analysis, database schema and system architecture, and prepare the TÜBİTAK project proposal.

  3. Hands holding a circuit board covered with buttons and components

    Working Prototype & Demo

    Build a minimum working prototype under the guidance of industry architects and present it at competitions.

Industry & Career Bridge

Technical visits to FinTech hubs, enterprise architecture talks and direct internship/career contact with industry professionals.

    Corporate Technical Visits

    The aim is for students to see corporate working dynamics and white-collar office culture first-hand. The first visit is planned at Dgpays (Ataşehir office) for 20–25 people, and we aim to visit at least one technology hub every month during the term.

    Behind the Code Panels

    Interactive Q&A sessions with software leaders (tech leads), system/security architects and product managers working in the industry; the member who asks the best question, chosen through a pre-event survey, is invited on stage.

  3. An audience watching the stage in a crowded conference hall

    External Ecosystem Trips

    Regular group participation in open-source meet-ups, Google Developer Groups (GDG) events, DevOps Days and cybersecurity conferences across Istanbul.
