In his opening speech, Prof. Dr. İsmail Koyuncu said, “ITU Museum will take us on a journey of 250 years… Throughout this 250-year journey, we will see that the bright minded scientists who grew up in this land and came together at the Technical University are bees that contribute to humanity and influence, guide and inspire the next generations. I hope that in this way we will witness ITU’s adventure of being born in this geography and serving all of humanity.”
