On May 26, 2025, an "External Stakeholder Advisory Board" meeting was held online via the Meet platform in our department. During the meeting, Department Head Associate Professor Dr. S. Seda Bapoğlu Dümenci introduced the department to our stakeholders. In addition to reviewing attendance and evaluating excuses for absences, the meeting provided an opportunity for department faculty members and external stakeholders to get acquainted. Methods and techniques used in the courses were shared, and field collaborations and practical application areas were discussed in detail. Furthermore, expectations and needs in the field were identified, and valuable ideas were gathered by sharing views on social contribution.

We thank all our stakeholders for their contributions.
