Poyraz Akçoru, Muhammed Molla, and Alptekin Polat Eken, students in our Faculty’s Department of Industrial Design Engineering, took first place worldwide in the Autodesk Designathon 2026 competition, in which they participated as the “Design Conflict” team.

In this international competition, which featured 190 teams representing 133 educational institutions from 20 countries, the innovative, sustainable, and user-centered hygiene station design developed by our students was selected by the jury as the overall winner of the competition.

We congratulate our students on this proud international achievement and wish them continued success.
